Clearly, September is here as today marks four years recovery after Irma. We celebrate by giving thanks for maintaining during peak harvest months as avocado, guineps(Spanish lime), okra and soursop flourish throughout the land. Our plot has offered 13lbs average weekly okra since late July. A 65lbs total yield for the season. Local produce sales are moving fast and furiously! Extending thanks to our relationships with farmers, plantations and vendors – The Farm House, King Ghut Plantation, New Bush Farms, The Governor in Greenland, Eddy’s Green Scene, and Prestige Café to name a few. Even received thyme from the grounds at Balsam ghut. Evidently, demands for local produce is high! Let’s continue to stimulate the agriculture industry by supporting local food producers. Check out this grant opportunity with World Central Kitchen and apply if you qualify.
