To celebrate the growth of their program and the blessing of cooler weather, the IRC has organized a Fall Celebration Potluck and Garden Tour at the Nottinghill Garden on Thursday October 27, 3:30-6:30 pm. IRC clients expressed interest in cooking an amaranth dish.  Please join the fun and bring a dish to share!

The garden is at 2660 N. Alvernon, on site of the Nottinghill Apartments. You may park in the front lot off Alvernon and walk through the apartment courtyard straight back to the garden. The garden is fenced in and nearest building D of the apartments. Please do not park on Flower St. as to not disturb neighbors.
