The Hidden Hands Project
HIDDEN HANDS GARDEN
Work on the Hidden Hands Garden began on April 28, 2019 following a groundbreaking ceremony. This garden will demonstrate the many techniques, seeds, and agricultural methods that were introduced by both African and Native American enslaved peoples. This garden plot will highlight the difference between sustenance crops, cash crops and demonstrate how the crop varieties have changed overtime.
The Hidden Hands Garden was recently featured in The College Today. Check out the article here.
