Phil Fairbanks wrote a nice story about the work our Green Summer crew of young people did on Eaton Street house.

Mayor Brown’s Summer Youth Program pays their wages; Buffalo ReUse puts them to work in the community. A lot of work they did the past five weeks was aimed at making the house on Eaton Street a home for their own program and a future office for Buffalo ReUse. The crew helped set up the Eaton Street Patchwork Community Gardens. They also had the opportunity to meet and work with other community activists, such as Dr. Henry Taylor of UB and Valeria Cray-Dihaan of 50 Women With A Vision.

When we thanked Phil for his work, he responded “My pleasure. I love doing stories like that, and the kids were great.” Thanks again, Phil!
