The new Garrison-Trotter Farm on Harold Street

City and state officials joined Harold Street residents today to officially break ground on the transformation of an old city-owned vacant lot into a vegetable farm made possible under a change in city zoning to allow farms in the city's more urbanized areas.

The Garrison-Trotter Farm will let participants - local residents who have been undergoing training in farming - provide fresh food to local residents and restaurants.
