February 9 Run: Meet at the Detective Building, 224 N Euclid Avenue for an East Liberty Run


This Sunday, let's repeat the Detective Building run, as I missed it the first time and am still intrigued.  It's a co-working space and adaptive reuse project, plus there's a lot to check out in East Liberty, specifically the Whole Foods development which just broke ground.

This past Sunday it was a blustery snow that made visibility a little difficult, but it proved worthwhile.  I led the group through Garfield, around a newer housing development, ascending up to a pinnacle (sorry about the hills!) where the Water Tower and Garfield Community Farm are located.  What a treat-- the community garden was not there the last time we did this run several years ago!  I don't have any endorsements, just these photos that show this really unique community gem.  Apparently they have a mobile market and volunteer program.  The farm had a miniature labyrinth, an elaborate compost system, a greenhouse, and even some resident rabbits!
