Hazelwood Urban Gardens (formerly Hazelwood Harvest) has established another garden, located at W. Elizabeth and Lytle. Come see. With the help of numerous adults and children, we have roses and other flowers, garlic, onion, lettuce, potatoes, French sorrel, Jerusalem artichokes (sunchokes), squash, cucumber, brussels sprouts, peppermint, strawberry, a spruce tree, edible nasturtium (don't eat it, it's our only one), carrot, cilantro, parsley, tomatoes, cabbage, chives, peppers, beans,...
Our first, Ladora Way Urban Farm (also in the Riverside - "Below-the-Tracks" - neighborhood), has raised beds available free to residents without land of their own who wish to grow food. Get hold of me (Jim McCue) at appropriatebiotech@yahoo.com or
412/421-6496.
A third community food garden, for which (as with the others) we welcome volunteers, is on Flowers Avenue and is well begun. Email me at appropriatebiotech@yahoo.com to coordinate helping at that site also.
