Gardening Class is a hands-on, once a week community project that teaches residents how to garden, work with the earth, and grow food to eat. Gardening promotes good nutrition, community building, and overall well being. The LBSAC garden is beautiful! It’s full of string beans, lima beans, cherry tomatoes, large tomatoes, Swiss chard, basil, garlic, carrots, onions, collard greens, beets, and more. The papayas are still on the tree, and the gardeners will gather them and prepare for the new ones that are coming in the summer through fall seasons. The garden is still waging a war against pests. Instructor Toni Byrd plans to try a new organic mix of cumin, lemon juice and turmeric.
