Fruits for Your Labor

September 8, 2009 | Jon Hall

The Winston-Salem Urban League has a delicious, hidden treasure. Downtown on Fifth Street, this treat is nestled between two buildings and concealed by a white wooden fence.
It is a thriving garden.
Adults in the agency's Senior Program and youth from around the community are planting, pruning, weeding and watering vegetable and fruit plants. And they've got a bumper crop in Better Boy tomatoes, okra and green and banana peppers.

Hear from volunteers who are nurturing this community garden as they describe its impact on their lives.
