| Remembering September 11th: Events,Resources and Links | ||||
| In
the aftermath of the World Trade Center attacks, New Yorkers looked
for ways to contribute to the city's rebirth. Last November, Cornell
University Cooperative Extension New York City's 4-H Youth Council
participated in the memorial planting of 25,000 daffodil bulbs. The
Daffodils, in the spring of 2002, bloomed to form the image of the
World Trade Center. Unfortunately, because of the lack of rain, the
image formed by the daffodils could not be sustained. On Saturday, September 7, 2002 the 4-H Youth Council returned to repair the garden in time to remember the year since the attack on the World Trade Center. View a slideshow of the work on September 7th. |
