Students in the afterschool program taste basil plants

Farmer Cliff and students sprinkle mulch between collard green plants.


The students are proud to have been part of building the new garden which will memorialize the life of Ms. Gina Knowles, who worked at Virrick Park for many years and supported past garden projects.  Ms. Knowles took extra time to care for the garden.  She will be missed!
