Tuesday September 20th was a busy day for the Birchip Community Kitchen Garden
Project. At 9.30 the inaugural committee met at the EWHS Primary Care Centre to
discuss the conditions under which the community garden will operate.
At mid day as part of the project the Birchip P-12 School Hospitality and VCAL
students provided lunch for the Senior Citizens Club. The students prepared a range
of casseroles and vegetable dishes. Branden Atkinson and Michael Casey from the
school VCAL program together with Emily Clarke and Kerry Punton from the EWHS
Community Garden Project served members a delicious lunch. This activity was a
wonderful example of collaboration between different demographic groups within
the community. Branden and Michael thoroughly enjoyed the experience, it gave
them an opportunity to practice their interpersonal and hospitality skills.
