GardenShare Harvest Social Nov. 10 at SUNY Potsdam

POTSDAM -- GardenShare hosts a Harvest Social at 7 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 10, in SUNY Potsdam’s Thatcher Hall. The event is free and open to the public.

All are invited to join GardenShare staff for an informal evening of music, socializing, and enjoying delicious pies baked from local ingredients by the chefs of PACES Dining Services.

Music for the evening will be provided by a jazz ensemble from the Crane School of Music.

At the social, GardenShare will present its ninth annual Growing Community Award to Katherine Lang. Each year this award salutes organizations or individuals whose efforts strengthen food security in northern New York State.

As a nutrition educator and then a regional food system developer with Cornell Cooperative Extension, Katherine Lang worked to improve the health and vitality of the North Country. She was a founding board member of the North Country Grown Cooperative, which markets and delivers locally produced goods to colleges, restaurants, and other regional institutions.
