MacCormick Secure's Community Service Garden Project is beginning and we need your help!
The young men at MacCormick Secure, located in Brooktondale, N.Y. (one of three maximum secure facilities for youths in NYS) are about to embark on a gardening project. They are starting a vegetable and herb garden at their facility. The vegetables and herbs will be donated to the Brooktondale Farmer's Market (where they will be sold by Brooktondale teens) and to the Brooktondale Food Pantry. Additional vegetables will be made into MacCormick's' famous Salsa, which will also be donated to the Brooktondale programs. The MacCormick teens will also be creating a composting system this summer under Cooperative Extension Adam Michaelides' supervision, to be integrated with their gardening plan and will include composting food scraps from the facility. Anyone who has herb and vegetable plants to donate to this exciting new project,please contact Marjorie Olds at [EMAIL PROTECTED] or 277 2228. Thanks so much for your support of this project. _______________________________________________ RSS, archives, subscription & listserv information for: [email protected] http://lists.mutualaid.org/mailman/listinfo/sustainabletompkins free hosting by http://www.mutualaid.org
