Emmanuel helped w/ the planting of tomatoes at the corner of Bryden and Ohio. He is part of a program for people w/ developmental disabilities run by AD Ohio.
Christopher Apple who’s worked w/ 4 Seasons City Farm for years helps Emmanuel and other participants in the AD Ohio program learn about community gardening.
“This (gardening) is particularly great for this type of work, because I can use the garden as a way to have some teachable moments and help these guys increase their self-esteem and their skill-sets and help out Hank, Daniel, and (Four Seasons) City Farm in the process. It’s a win-win.”
