> Volunteer gardening sessions will be held in the Permaculture Park in Ithaca’s Northside on Thursdays from 4-7 pm. The Permaculture Park is located in Conley Park on Alice Miller Way, between the Sciencenter and the former Neighborhood Pride grocery store on Hancock Street.
>  
> Neighborhood volunteers and staff from CCE Tompkins have been working together to plant edible species in the park for the last two years, and the park is starting to bear fruit this summer! Strawberries and Juneberries are ripe for picking now, and later this summer there will also be raspberries, currants, gooseberries, apples and plums ripening in the park.
>  
> Volunteer for an hour or two to help support this project, or just take a walk through the park to see how edible plants can successfully be planted in a public setting in an urban environment. The new Northside farmers market also takes place on Thursdays from 4-7 pm, in the parking lot of the former Neighborhood Pride grocery store. For more information contact Chrys Gardener at 272-2292 or emailcab69 at cornell.edu
