At the Cradle of American democracy, Independence Hall, First Bloom is restoring gardens with native species that flourished when the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution were signed. Beginning with a garden adjacent to Carpenter Hall, which hosted the First Continental Congress in 1774, and near the 18th Century Garden that displays a plaque honoring Lady Bird Johnson, Boys and Girls Club kids are experiencing the fun of digging holes and growing their own passion for conservation.
