An Update from PBF
To the friends of Pasadena Beautiful Foundation,
Our board of directors and advisory board join me in wishing all of you good health and safety during this unusual and stressful period of the global pandemic. Like all of us, we’re staying home and trying to make the best of what we can given the circumstances.
The result of our quarantine is that we won’t be as active uploading our pictures to the website as often as we usually do. But we are still participating in the weekly “Wednesday Weeders” from 8:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. We’re wearing masks and staying appropriately apart, and still having fun as we work in Pasadena’s parks. Feel free to join us.
I am hopeful that we will get back to a more normal existence in the not too distant future. I don’t know about you, but I am gratified by the outpouring of kindness that I can detect from my fellow Pasadena citizens. We’re all in this together and I think this is felt universally by our wonderful community.
In solidarity,
Brad Hanson
Pasadena Beautiful President

Our Mission
Pasadena Beautiful Foundation works with individuals, community organizations and the City to restore, renew and protect
Pasadena’s parks, urban forests and public spaces.
Our Latest Project: Hill Avenue Library Landscaping Project
From the Library: I’m pleased to let you know that the patio garden is very popular at Hill Ave Branch Library. We are pleased to be able to offer this space for people who want to read outside, eat lunch or play after crafts and programs, including story time. We have had one large program outside – an animal show, and we plan to have more programs soon. That space accommodates many more people than we can fit into any space inside. So, I want to thank you once again for helping to make this happen. Please pass my thanks along to all Pasadena Beautiful participants.
