It was wonderful to meet Anika, along with several other Girl Guides who jumped for joy at the Demuth Community Center garden. We can buy anything we want at a grocery store and it’s easy to forget where food comes from, so it’s inspiring to see young intelligent girls learning how to garden and harvest vegetables. Anika knew exactly where and how she wanted to jump and we easily captured her flying up into the air.
