Fall celebrations

Friday, September 18th is busy for the garden:

Join us during the day for grilled hot dogs, sausages and a hot sauce tasting, in conjunction with the Citizen’s Care Senior Center, at 146 Saint Nicholas Ave and 117th St., for their sidewalk and cake sale. Hot sauces are made in VA by Jeffrey Johnson, a former Harlem resident.

Steve will accept a Community Leadership Award from Harlem Children’s Zone on behalf of the garden and we’ll meet at Minton’s at 9pm to celebrate.

Hope to see you!
