It was another busy day for @RosenblumCos team on the (urban) farm at the @CapitalRootsNY Produce Project in Troy, one of our favorite places to volunteer. Picked, cleaned and bundled so much garlic, we’re officially immune to vampires!

A terrific day in #Troy celebrating $750,000 in new federal Community Project funding for @CapitalRootsNY’s Urban Grow Center!

The center provides affordable, fresh, quality food to residents across our region, and this major new investment will help advance its vital mission.
