Neighbors,
Be sure to check out the Harvest Table tomorrow at the Slowyuga Block Party, 12-3pm on the 800 block of Cayuga Ave!
Please bring your extra garden fruit (apples, lemons, whatever), veggies, seeds, cuttings, small plants - even gently used garden tools.
You can take things home if you like (all free) and you'll also be helping attendees that may be in need, especially in these challenging times.
Please see the attached flyer.
Let's GROWYUGA!

And thank you to the crew that has been doing this for the last four years.
