Get mad if you want to but Trevor Noah is absolutely 100% correct.

We are excited to announce our Produce Project Weekend Farm Stand, this Saturday from 10am – 1pm at our Urban Farm in Troy, 261 8th Street. You will be able to find a beautiful array of organically grown veggies, herbs, flowers and fruits. We look forward to seeing you there!

We want to congratulate all of our Produce Project alumni who are graduating this year. We are so proud of all that you have accomplished and wish you luck in your future endeavors. We hope the experiences you’ve had will help support you in the next chapter of your life.
Our Squash Hunger program collects and distributes tons of fresh produce each year. Last week volunteers helped glean beautiful lettuce for distribution to food pantries and soup kitchens through Squash Hunger. Thank you to our amazing volunteers! bit.ly/VolunteerWithCR.
As millions of people across the country take to the streets and raise their voices in response to the killing of George Floyd and the ongoing problem of unequal justice, I’ve heard many ask how we can sustain momentum to bring about real change.
Why are black people dying from #COVID at higher rates than white people? Why are health outcomes worse in communities of color? Why did George Floyd die? Why does this happen again and again? It’s all related.
Our Healthy Stores coordinator, James, is making weekly fresh produce deliveries to neighborhood corner stores and small retail shops around the Capital Region. In just the past few weeks, over 3,000 pounds of fruits and vegetables have been distributed. bit.ly/CapitalRootsDo….
During these challenging times we can all do something to support our local economy, aid local businesses and help our neighbors. Our Urban Grow Center Market brings dozens of #UpstateNewYork providers under one roof and makes them available and affordable for you.

SCOTUS’ rulings overturning abortion rights + NY’s concealed weapon law were alarming + harmful. Today, NY responded strongly. I applaud @GovKathyHochul and the legislature for passing legislation to empower and protect New Yorkers.

Happy Earth Day! Join Capital Roots, @MayorSheehan and other dignitaries for the ribbon cutting and introduction of the Morris Street Community Garden, providing 60+ gardeners and their families with new spaces to grow healthy food, be outdoors, and form a stronger community.
The theme for Earth Day 2021 is 'Restore our Earth,' and I cannot think of a better way to celebrate than to open this new community garden. Community gardens bring life back to communities, provide nutritious food, & the opportunity to be environmental stewards.

What’s life been like for @TheAmandaGorman since she performed her poem “The Hill We Climb” at Biden’s inauguration? Why did she update the poem after the January 6th insurrection? And what's it like getting more buzz than Bernie's mittens?
I commend @MCCoyCountyExec for making this tough but necessary decision given the information we have available. We need to do everything we can to protect our residents, and Albany County is doing just that.
My report on environmental funding shows @NYSDEC’s operational spending has declined as their responsibilities have grown. The agency must have the staff and funding it needs to fulfill its critically important work. nyscomp.org/2MvwPHd
