Growing local
Two upcoming events make the thirteenth a lucky date for CNY growers in February and March.
This Saturday, February 13, 2010, Syracuse Grows and Canopy present Gardening in Syracuse, from 10am – 1pm at the Bob Cecile Center, 174 West Seneca Turnpike, Syracuse. Three workshops will focus on managing physical conditions of soil, successful vegetable gardening, and soil toxicity. Learn more about this free event here.
On Saturday, March 13, 2010, the 2010 Upstate NY Permaculture Gathering, hosted by Alchemical Nursery, will be at the Gear Factory, 200 South Geddes Street, from 10am-5pm. RSVP and flyer are now available here.
Both events help us build experience towards a sustainable, self-reliant CNY food supply and fit right in with Slow Food. To get inspired, take a look at Josh Viertel’s essay in the Atlantic, “Why Big Ag Won’t Feed the World.” Josh Viertel is president of Slow Food USA.
