University Community Harvest Farmers’ Market
|
Syracuse University and the SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry will continue their third annual University Community Harvest Farmers’ Market series in September. Markets are planned for four Fridays: Sept. 11, 18 and 25 and Oct. 9, from 11 a.m. – 3 p.m. in the Waverly parking lot. Free parking will be available in the University Avenue Garage. This year’s markets will feature a wide variety of locally grown fruits, vegetables and plants; snacks; condiments; ceramics; and other handmade items. There will also be educational literature on healthy eating, sustainable practices and organic farming. The University Community Harvest Farmers’ Markets began as a pilot project in 2007. “We are pleased to expand the University Community Harvest Farmers’ Market series again this year to offer the community the opportunity to purchase fresh, wholesome produce and specialty items from the wide variety of fine craftsmen and artisans in our greater community,” says Peter Webber, SU’s director of auxiliary services and chair of the committee organizing the markets.
