Ecosocialism
Growing Socialism
The Ithaca EcoSocialism Subcomittee is dedicated to building local solidarity and winning national progressive environmental policy through a shared love of the world we inhabit.
We achieve this through care of the DSA Solidarity Garden/Plant Nursery, local educational events, and partnership with the DSA Electoral Comittee to support green candidates and green polilcy movements.
We donate what we grow to local food banks, and strive to help people take back some degree of food soverignty.
