Members of the Antigua and Barbuda Association of People with Disabilities demonstrated remarkable resilience and determination by harvesting over 100 pounds of sweet potatoes, a bounty that was later distributed among their community members.
In an inspiring display of ingenuity, these dedicated individuals cultivated the potatoes in upcycled tires, transforming them into flourishing gardens.
This innovative approach not only highlighted their commitment to self-sufficiency but also showcased their ability to thrive despite challenges.

Wow. Now this is what backyard gardening can result to. This give a lot of hope to many of us out there.
I’m concerned though that they didn’t choose to sell some to earn some much needed revenue
Always great to see stuff like that. Keep it up
