¸Ô±¾ÊÓƵ’s Community Garden (CCG) is returning to campus this fall to bring freshly harvested produce to ¸Ô±¾ÊÓƵ students. Major changes have been made in the last few months with the opening of Good Nature Brewery’s farm brewery next door to the garden, and we’re thrilled to expand our relationship with the community through ¸Ô±¾ÊÓƵ and Good Nature alike.
¸Ô±¾ÊÓƵ Community Garden’s farmstand will sell fresh, locally grown produce in the O’Connor Campus Center this fall. The farm stand will be open on Tuesdays from 11:15 AM to 1:00 PM beginning September 5 and ending October 31.
If you are interested in learning more about gardening or simply want to get your hands dirty, we welcome you to attend open volunteer hour at the garden every Monday from 5 to 6 PM until October 23. We will also be hosting volunteer work parties on Monday, September 18 and Monday, October 16 from 5 to 6:30 PM with snacks and refreshments. No previous gardening experience is required; we’re here to help interested students and community members learn.
We also invite you to attend our garden events this semester:
Sunday, September 24 12:30-1:30, location TBD
Cornell Cooperative Extension educational event about soil health and composting.
Monday, October 30 5-6 PM, Academic Quad
