Mother’s Day Garden Celebration

May 10 & 11, 2025

12–5 p.m. | At the Garden

Treat Mom to a One-of-a-Kind Garden Party

Celebrate Mom with a weekend of fun! Make Daffodil Hill your own backyard and bring the whole family together to enjoy local food truck options, play an assortment of family-friendly lawn games, craft a gift for Mom, and get your face painted with whimsical designs. Music and collage activities are presented by local vinyl DJ collective, Uptown Vinyl Supreme, and Bronx Community Collage.

What Happens if it Rains?
This event is rain or shine. In the event of inclement weather, a covered location will host our live music, collaging, and face painting activities. Select food trucks will be present. Lawn games will be canceled, but we will have fun take-home activities awaiting you. Don’t forget your umbrella to enjoy the Garden’s blooms!”
