For several years, the Onondaga Earth Corps has had an office inside of the SUNY Educational Opportunity Center (SUNY EOC) at 100 New St. in Syracuse, but as the years have gone by, we have outgrown our space. Over the course of the next few weeks, we will be packing boxes and moving items to our new office at 490 W. Onondaga St., Syracuse, NY.
