Tulips on Troost aims to change the face of Troost Avenue by planting one million tulips along the Avenue in honor of an early Kansas City leader, Dr. Benoist Troost. Through this mission, we hope to inspire and motivate the citizens of Kansas City to recognize the value of neighborhood capital improvements and beautification in some of the city's most under-served neighborhoods. Tulips are just on the surface—our deep-rooted goal is to use a beautiful, accessible thing like a tulip to represent positive change on Troost and to let the city know that Troost is worth our time, efforts, and resources.
We've been growing all sorts of lovely things at the Center High School greenhouse and are ready to share! Come get some plants (and handmade soap!) to take home with you at CHS Wed-Fri (see times below), or at Troostwood Commons (49th & Troost) this Saturday morning 10am-noon(ish). Please bring cash, prices range from $2-$10.
