The Piney Wood Chapel Missionary Baptist Church Community Garden was featured on the front page of the Community section of the local newspaper, the Bertie Ledger-Advance, on March 14th. Congratulations to the church congregation and to James Peele, CYFAR Community Garden Coordinator, for a great start to the 2012 gardening season!
This is a project of The Cooperative Extension Program at N.C. Agricultural & Technical State University
This North Carolina Children, Youth, and Families at Risk (CYFAR) project uses community gardening to: empower communities to produce food for families, deliver hands-on nutrition education, create opportunities for youth to develop agri-related business skills, build leadership among community members, and provide engaging activities for family members of all ages to work together for a common purpose.
