The Radix Center

Feeling intimidated about starting your own garden? Come by our open house on Saturday to get a demo on raised beds, with tips that can apply to growing spaces of all sizes.

Volunteer at the farm!

Drop in between 4-7 each Wednesday through the growing season and garden alongside your neighbors.

If you can’t make it this week, we hope to see you for our open house this Saturday for a demo and a tour.

Come by this Saturday, May 9th, for our monthly Open House!

We’ll have a mix of vegetable starts, flowers, berry shrubs, and tree saplings ahead of Mother’s Day so come pick up a plant for a loved one in your life and get a look at the Farm as it gets filled up with this season’s produce.

Guided tours at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m.

Arbor Week recap!

Radix and ITECA teamed up to plant 17 trees throughout Albany over Arbor Week! We planted trees at 3 different public schools in the City School District of Albany: Giffen Memorial Elementary School, Albany International Academy, and Arbor Hill Elementary School (with a ton of help from the students!). In addition, we put apple trees in the ground at the Essie Snead Memorial Orchard with the help of NYS assemblymember Gabriella Romero and Albany Common Council member Owusu Anane.

With declines in tree canopy coverage in all of Albany's disadvantaged communities over the past 5 years, it is critical that every resource be used to promote cooling and air quality in our neighborhoods!

Thanks so much to everyone who came out to celebrate South End Earth Day with us! We had a great turnout with over twice as many volunteers as expected, who cleaned up a dozen neighborhood gardens and community spaces to prepare them for the growing season.

Afterwards, we gathered outside Radix for our community resource fair and block party. Approximately 300 people came together for this highly anticipated event, which included hot food, free health screenings, music provided by , important resources, and so much more. We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful day to share with all of you, and we are so grateful for all the support of our volunteers, neighbors, and partner organizations. We can’t wait to do it again next year!

Radix plans to host several events this summer, including our upcoming Open House and Mother’s Day Plant Sale on Saturday, May 9th from 10am-2pm. Swipe to the end for details — we hope to see you there🌸🌱
