The Community Garden's Revival

Due to the Jackson Avenue Improvement Project, the Community Garden, across from on Jackson Avenue, was completely destroyed.

RESIDENTS for a more beautiful Syosset received a donation from Lizza Construction Company, the firm that renovated Jackson Avenue, to help in the renovation of the Community Garden, which has added color and beauty to Syosset since the year 2000. 

Through the cooperation of , the garden came to life this past weekend. Mr. Roy DeBenedittis, his son, Kyle, and an employee spent Saturday morning planting ornamental grasses, barberry bushes, begonias, variegated boxwoods, purple loosestrife, and yellow Stella D'Oro daylilies. The project was completed with the laying down of mulch. The DeBenedittis Nursery and Florist donated their time and labor to see this project to its successful conclusion.

RESIDENTS for a more beautiful Syosset would like to thank the Lizza Construction Company and the DeBenedittis Nursery and Florist for their generous donations and in helping RESIDENTS make Syosset a little more beautiful.
