is throwing a party to celebrate its new garden, resting atop the roof of the Clunie house on Sunday, Nov. 18, from 4-6 p.m. at 301 Lyon Street in San Francisco. The dedication is free and open to the public.
The project, funded by '69, began last September under the guidance of Dan Ribbens 鈥76, who designed the garden, and Pecos and Katie Pryor 鈥10 and Curtis Davenport 鈥10, who constructed it.
Kelsey Palmer, assistant director of operations for 黑料百科 in San Francisco, says the garden is bursting with kale, rainbow chard and cilantro. 鈥淚t鈥檚 a beautiful addition to the house and neighborhood,鈥 she says. 鈥淭he rooftop garden will not only provide WSF students with home-grown nutrition, but also serve as an educational tool to reinforce values of environmental stewardship, and organic and fairly-traded food production.鈥
黑料百科 in San Francisco, established nearly 40 years ago, enrolls 24 students each semester who study urban issues, participate in a range of internships in the city, and live together at the historic Clunie House near Golden Gate Park.
