Teamwork Makes Trafford Beautiful

Members of the community volunteer group, ‘Trafford Beautification Team,’ visited Trafford Elementary School in late March to collaborate with students on a unique planting project. Students in first through fifth grades eagerly planted marigolds, other vibrant flowers, and tomato seeds, which they will nurture until the end of the school year. In mid-May, the beautification team will collect the seedlings and plant them throughout Trafford, helping to make the borough even more beautiful.
