The Franklin Downtown Partnership and Franklin Garden Club are gearing up for Beautification Day on Saturday, May 17. Volunteers are needed to prepare downtown Franklin for the spring season. Roll up your sleeves and dig in. Many hands are needed to help plant a variety of flowers on the bridges, barrels and boxes in front of the businesses.
Volunteers with trucks, please meet at 7:30 AM at Fairmount Fruit Farm at 887 Lincoln Street to pick up trays of flowers and deliver downtown. If you don’t have a truck, arrive by 8:00 AM at the public parking lot near the bridge in front of The Rome restaurant. Bring work gloves, rakes and garden tools, if you can.

The committee also needs volunteers to water the plants for the season. There are 18 weeks of watering needed throughout the summer months. Pick the weeks that work for you. To volunteer to plant on May 17th , contact Eileen Mason at eileenmason@remax.net To volunteer to water this summer, email Sandy Sauer at sandy@franklintilecarpetone.
"Our goal is to give people something to smile about as they drive through our historic downtown and maybe just make their day a little better," said Eileen Mason, Beautification Day Chairperson. Franklin Downtown Partnership Executive Director, Lisa Piana, appreciates the many people who come together to make this a success. “The Partnership is very grateful to Eileen Mason, Sandy Sauer, the Franklin Garden Club, the DPW and the many members of our community who volunteer to make our center beautiful for the spring and summer."
