Belize City Go Green
The Belize City Council has embarked on an Urban Gardening Project, and recently Minister of Agriculture, Food Security and Enterprise Jose Abelardo Mai and Mayor Bernard Wagner sat down to discuss the elements of the project. During the meeting, the Minister reiterated his and his Ministry’s commitment to support such initiatives and we are happy to note, in this vein, the City Council’s first greenhouse having been erected on Police Street Extension in Belize City.
Kudos to Mayor Wagner and his team for the foresight and polic y perspicacity of setting up what we hope will be the first of many other gardening hotspots in the city. Kudos also to Gary Ramirez and his team from MAFSE that are providing the technical assistance in setting up the covered structure and seedling planting and growing know-how.
Let’s go green in our urban spaces…save money and eat healthy as we Plant, Grow and Build Belize.
