Sustainable Crop Gardening 

Through the past years, Katryna has learned all about permaculture, crop growing, companion planting, plant nutrition, composting, replenishing the soil, and how to create a very abundant garden patch using organic practices. She would like to share all her knowledge with 5 volunteers that would visit her garden for 3 Saturdays and really learn hands on what it means to be a crop grower.

NATIONAL ANTHEM”, A SOLO EXHIBITION BY KEVIN MALLAN IS A VERDICT, A PROTEST SONG AND, IN THE ARTIST’S OWN WORDS, “AN OUTCRY FOR THIS ISLAND AND WHAT THE ORDER OF THE DAY HAS BECOME TO SIGNIFY”.
