Cara and Justin Young, Skip Mancini, stand with one of the weed control workers in the garden.

We'll continue our visit at the High Plains Food Bank in Amarillo by doing a walk-through of the garden with Cara Young. 

Harvesting bounty from the one-acre plot is part of the daily chores for Cara, her husband Justin, and a small group of summer interns.  They are assisted by other helpers, some furred and some feathered who help keep down the weed and insect population.  Our tour continues with a look at herbs, berries, and vegetable plots that will provide a fall harvest.
