NeighborSpace Community Park Tour
Saturday, May 30, 2026
01:00 PM - 03:00 PM
Join us for a guided tour of Powhatan Park and Carroll Watkins Park, two of NeighborSpace’s 21 conservation sites, with Phyllis Joris. Learn about the transformation of these vacant lots into beautiful community parks and future plans for an additional pollinator garden.
NeighborSpace’s mission is to enhance the livability of Baltimore County’s urban communities by protecting, restoring, and stewarding land for small parks, gardens, trails, and natural areas. NeighborSpace conserves 100 acres at 21 sites. They work with community partners to actively maintain and program these sites.
Phyllis Joris came to NeighborSpace as an avid native plant gardener with a passion for people and years of experience volunteering in her community. As the Executive Director, she has become an experienced project manager, grant-writer and strategic thinker, some of which is simplified by her background in mathematics. Phyllis is excited to roll out volunteer and community science programs and implement data-informed restoration. Her favorite workdays are those spent outdoors with community partners.
