A few weeks later, Azaz had grown one especially for him. The boy was delighted, running around the garden with the biggest smile on his face.
His teacher later explained that his mum had sadly passed away a few months earlier, and he wanted the flower for her grave but couldn’t afford one himself.
For Ray and Azaz, moments like this show that the garden is about much more than gardening. It’s about bringing people together and making a difference in the community.
