The Brussels Post, 1979-08-01, Page 32$ THE BRUSSELS POST, AUGUST 8, 1979 Junior Farmers sponsor garden The. Huron County Junior Farmers are sponsoring their second, annual Garden Project at the Bluewater Centre for the Developmentally Handicap- ped in Goderich, With the help of several residents from the Centre and a student hired for the summer, they have planted and weeded and will harvest and market a vegetable garden. • The Centre is equipped with a garden tractor and two rototillers which are used to care for the one and a half acre garden. The Bluewater Centre is anxious to make use of the surrounding property, while at the same time preserve the rural setting and to provide agri- cultural training to some of the residents. The Junior Farmers hope. to make a profit from the project and return a portion of it into improving the garden of the facilities at the Centre for additional resident training and summer employment ,for students. The whole purpose of this project is to give the residents practical training that will hopefully enable them to return to the community with added skills. But to be successful with this project the Junior Farmers need the support of the community. Last Year, this support was gratefully shown through the donation of seeds, plants, herbicides and fertilizer from stores, garden centres and co-operatives throughout Huron County. This year, with some of the profits from last year's garden crop, the supplies w ere purchased from many of these same stores. The successful conclusion to this worthwhile summer project will be the marketing of the fresh produce at competitive prices within the community and local stores. 70 immigrant sponsors OK'd others are pending further information.
