Tall Corn Grows In City Garden In Syracuse Back Yard
Retired Syracuse city employee Charles Levand, 69, shows 13 foot corn stalks and other crops grown in a crowded backyard at 213 Ernest Street. He attributes the tall corn to regular weeding and seasonal work, with seven quarts of gooseberries, large tomato vines, and cabbage and beets thriving near neighbors’ garages. Levand lives with his daughter and son-in-law, Mr and Mrs Alonzo Snyder.
