The beginnings of the garden in 2009.
We’ve joined with neighbors, refugees and community groups for the second year of the community garden on Syracuse’s northside. Refugee families and neighbors readily claimed plots and planted the garden on Isabella Street in mid-May. Vegetables, herbs and flowers should be growing by now!
The site includes about 15 raised beds. This year we also sent bucket gardens home with about 80 people so they can grow tomatoes at their homes.
This Tapestry Garden is a partnership with Syracuse Grows, the Northside Collaboratory, the Center for New Americans and others.
