CANstruction

In a totally different, unrelated topic to gardening and horticulture, this is how I spent my Wednesday night:


Every year I participate in CANstruction which is a nonprofit organization that holds annual design and build competitions to construct giant structures made entirely out of canned food. At the close of the design competition all of the canned food used in the structures is donated to the local food banks for distribution to community emergency feeding programs. Just in time for Thanksgiving!


The eyebrows were the hardest part! It had to look CANgry!


Our structure will be up until November 21st at The World Financial Center in downtown Manhattan. The public is invited to bring canned foods to the exhibit to donate to City Harvest. For more information check out CANstruction.
