Gleaning Day is at hand

Monday, September 10, 2007

Don’t forget about City Harvest’s Gleaning Day coming up this Saturday!  Through Philadelphia Green’s City Harvest project, home and
community gardeners can “glean” from their gardens this Fall and donate extra produce to help needy families in our region. To participate, bring your extra garden produce to one of the following locations between 10am-1pm:

  • Aspen Farms, 4837 Aspen St, 19139 (West Phila., 49th & Aspen Streets, off Haverford Ave)
  • Bel Arbor Community Garden, 1012 Kimball St., 19147 (South Phila., between 10th & 11th Sts. just south of Carpenter)
  • Garden RUN, 242 Monastery Ave., 19128 (off Ridge Ave. in Roxborough)
  • Liberty Lands Garden, 913 N 3rd St., 19123 (Northern Liberties, entrance off Bodine & American Sts.)

Those who donate produce will be entered in a raffle to win tickets to the Philadelphia Flower Show!

For more information email or call Eileen Gallagher at 215-988-8880.
