Garden Time for Lascelles

Walking home from the bus stop after a trip to Westfield, I stopped to admire the 2011 version of the Bethel Presbyterian Church garden. Someone hailed me and it turned out to be gardener-in-chief Lascelles Walter, who stopped working long enough for a photo.

He is standing among mounds of thyme, a favorite culinary herb in Jamaican cooking. Callaloo plants dominate the center of the garden and this year Lascelles has tall stakes ready for the tomato plants at the rear.

Produce from the garden will be donated to various charities.

Best wishes to Lascelles and the Bethel church family for another great gardening season.
