The ?Young Gardeners? were at the garden without supervision?? We got it under control!? continuing with on-going maintenance, but due to rain the time spent at the garden was cut short.

Later in the afternoon the youth presented a hands-on Garden Workshop at the camp with the assistant of Garden Coordinator, Carmen Jones and Program Manager, Suzette Weekes. ?Planting Seeds for the Future?, where each camper? planted seeds of their choice and to provide care for at home then return to the garden at a later date to plant their produce and then harvest during appropriate time.
