Several members of a St James community have taken the initiative to boost their food security by transforming a plot of land in the area for crop production.At the same time, the 13-bed community garden created by about 12 residents of Santa Rosa Drive, Husbands, most of whom are retirees, provides the opportunity for them to interact with each other and get some physical activity.With permission from the requisite authorities, the garden group affectionately known as Neighbours in Boots has made worthwhile use of a quarter-acre spot in a section of the under-utilised recreation park.So far, they have reaped several pounds of okras and cucumbers. Other crops being cultivated include peppers, okras, pumpkin, cassava, peas, and beans. There is also a “wellness bed” that is specifically for planting herbs.
