Two local business groups handed Johns Creek Beautification a check on July 25 during the opening ceremony of their first annual cricket tournament, which they jointly sponsored.
Johns Creek Beautification is a volunteer-led nonprofit focused on enhancing local parks and green spaces. Its daffodil planting work is part of a broader partnership with CanCare, aimed at raising awareness of cancer survivorship through a citywide display of spring blooms, according to the AJC.
The organization also runs an annual Secret Garden Tour — now in its third year — whose proceeds support public art purchases, landscape projects across Johns Creek, and the daffodil planting effort, according to the AJC. The tour lets visitors walk through eight private home gardens and the grounds of Autrey Mill Nature Preserve, with musicians, artists, and master gardeners at each stop.
Why it matters — The donation puts a concrete date — October 10 Dig Day — on when Johns Creek residents can volunteer to help transform Cauley Creek Park into a spring daffodil display tied to cancer survivorship awareness.
