CORNBREAD FUNDRAISER TO BENEFIT ITHACA COMMUNITY HARVEST

Saturday, February 19, 11:30am-4:00pm
at the Great Downtown Ithaca Chili Cook-off, on the Ithaca Commons

What's more inviting than sunny yellow cornbread with
your chili on a frosty day?  Your purchase of cornbread at this
year's

Great Downtown Ithaca Chili Cook-off isn't just delicious - it also
will benefit the Ithaca Community Harvest.  Cornbread will be
prepared by Chef Leslie Muhlhahn of
Just Desserts using
Cayuga Pure Organics
cornmeal, and sold by Ithaca's
Share Our Strength-Taste of the Nation Committee.

Ithaca Community Harvest is a collaborative effort of the Village
at Ithaca with GreenStar Community Projects, the Ithaca City School
District and local farms and in cooperation with
Gardens4Humanity, Healthy Food
For All and the Whole Community
Project of Cornell Cooperative Extension Tompkins County, and
countless volunteers.  It connects students, staff and families from
Beverly J. Martin Elementary School, Greater Ithaca Activities Center and
Southside Community Center with locally grown fresh fruits and
vegetables. Seed funding for Ithaca Community Harvest comes from United
Way of Tompkins County's Basic Needs Fund and Hunger and Food Security
Grant, a grant from Share our Strength made possible through their
partnership with Weight Watchers.
