A delegation of fifteen young people from SEEDS (South Eastern Efforts Developing Sustainable Spaces) in Durham, North Carolina joined the BCC in working on its community garden. The young people, in the DIG (Durham Inner-City Gardeners) program, brought their experience and enthusiasm to the effort of creating garden beds. Working with Rev. Nelson Johnson and Wray Norwood of the BCC, the group was able to prepare the plot for planting and then join us for our weekly community meeting. Many thanks to these wonderful and powerful young people.
