Town of Ithaca opens its 1st community garden

Ithaca College senior, Nick Tessoni, initiated the planning of the Town of Ithaca's first community garden as a class project, according to a press release.

The garden is located at Conifer Village Apartments, off Route 79 West.  The garden has plots that can be rented by community members looking for a place to garden.

Town of Ithaca’s Recreation and Youth Coordinator Marnie Kirchgessner helped Tessoni implement his ideas, which was the result of an assignment in professor Linda Heynes “Service Learning II: Administration” class.
