We have potatoes on our mind in Ebensburg waiting for the Potato Fest this upcoming Saturday, the 26th. The Ebensburg Cambria Public Library has posted a new Story Walk along the Ghost Town Trail of the book entitled "The Couch Potato" by Jory John. After your walk on the trail, continue your walk to our demonstration garden at 300 Prave Street, Ebensburg, behind the Young Peoples Community Center (YPCC), and check out what we've set up in the garden (no photos here so you'll be surprised, but potato related). Then go to the back of the garden to search for potatoes in the large pile of wood shavings. Have fun!
