Finding a story this soul affirming in the giant river of bad news, scare stories our media loves to deliver is like going for a swim in one of those pig poo holding ponds and comming away with a dimond you stumbled on with your big toe while wading in.
Florence Russell is looking forward to this year’s offerings. On a recent Saturday she watched from the end of Alabama Avenue as gardeners worked compost into beds at Hands and Hearts Garden, one of the sites where the Wilkses keep beds, along with 24 other growers. Fresh greens, she said, would be a welcome alternative to tough collards from the local grocery.
“This is something good happening here,” Ms. Russell said.
