On Saturday, Oct. 24, members of the Volusia/Flagler Boys & Girl’s Club, at Rymfire Elementary School, worked hard, planting vegetables. Flagler County Master Gardeners David Tibbetts and Honor O’Reilly, along with Shantelle Britt, the Boys & Girls Club director, worked with the children and nearly 20 volunteers as they planted more than 200 vegetable seedlings.
The Flagler County’s Department of Juvenile Justice’s Community Garden continued its seventh year of operation, helping to feed Flagler’s hungry. Last year the garden donated more than 1,000 lbs. of fresh vegetables and citrus for local food pantries to distribute to families in need. This year the garden volunteers are planning to work even harder to increase their annual donation.
