If you visit Belfast, ME, you will be welcomed by thousands of these golden yellow flowers popping up everywhere; this is in large part due to the ‘Belfast Daffodil Project.’What is the Belfast Daffodil Project?

Local city dwellers and city planners run this wonderful community organization. They have set a goal of planting one million bulbs in the small city of Belfast, ME.Belfast native, Elisabeth Wolfe, envisioned this dream of one million golden pieces of sunshine. The local reflexologist and an army of local gardeners and non-gardeners have come together to make that dream a reality.

The Belfast Daffodil Project has four aims

Plant one Million of these daffodil plants in Belfast over the next 20 years.
Allow our unique community to join together with planting and enjoyment of daffodils.
Create a more beautiful, vibrant, and healthy landscape!
Make a BOLD SPRING statement of joyous life. — From the <a href="http://www.belfastdaffodilproject.com">www.belfastdaffodilproject.com</a>Their efforts of turning Belfast yellow

In the first year, they planted 50,000 bulbs! And in three years, they have managed to plant a total of 128,000. All the bulbs are paid for with donations.Elisabeth Wolfe loves that the city has come together, worked as a community, and brought much-needed joy in these difficult times living through a pandemic.

I’m finding myself laughing, actually, when I’ll be driving around, and I’ll see seven or eight pop up in the middle of nowhere. Spring can sometimes be hard in Maine. It’s great to have these daffodils saying ‘Yes! Life is coming back.’ — Elisabeth Wolfe

Not only have the residents of Belfast been working down in the soil, but also the city has helped a great deal in the planting effort. Flowers are being planted in parks and public areas. Even while driving along, you will notice the roads are lined with yellow flowers. <figure id="aee2"> <div> <div> <img class="ratio" src="http://placehold.it/16x9">

TRAVEL & TOURISM

The Million Daffodil Project in Belfast, ME

Spring usually arrives with the green landscape slowly becoming smudged with dots of bright yellow. The daffodil reflects the spring sun, lifting our spirits making us feel fuzzy and cozy inside.

For most of us, the winter is depressing, dark and cold, a world of black and white. Seeing these yellow beauties gives us hope that winter is over, and the good weather is on its way.

I wandered lonely as a cloud

That floats on high o’er vales and hills,

When all at once I saw a crowd,

A host, of golden daffodils;

Beside the lake, beneath the trees,

Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

… And then my heart with pleasure fills,

And dances with the daffodils.

— William Wordsworth.

NOTE: William Wordsworth’s words came from the Poetry Foundation.

Many mistakenly believe Wordsworth was from Maine; however, that was Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, who was born in Portland, Maine.

Longfellow was probably most famous for writing The Song of Hiawatha, which many of us learned in school. I know I did; I can still remember the first few lines…

“By the shore of Gitche Gumee, By the shining Big-Sea-Water…”

But, that’s another story.
