With the annual Corpus Christi holiday approaching—a period culturally revered across Trinidad and Tobago as the most auspicious time for agricultural planting—one Tobagonian electoral district took proactive steps to bolster local food security and household sustainability.
Residents across Mt. St. George and Goodwood turned out in large numbers for a dedicated community seedling distribution drive. The initiative provided households and local farmers with high-yield crop and vegetable seedlings designed to encourage backyard gardening, offset rising supermarket food prices, and preserve traditional planting customs across the district.
