City Harvest - Curran Fromhold Correctional Facility

Sharat Somashekara is an instructor who works for the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society, walks by a golden raspberry bush behind the House of Corrections on State Road.
Raspberry bushes are in bloom in the garden behind the House of Corrections as a part of the City Harvest Program. Vegetables are grown and distributed to community gardens in and around the city. Inmates work in the garden and that provides about 4,000 pounds of food to a cupboard in Frankford.
