Br. Esteban Reyes from the Marianist Family Retreat Center, Cape May, NJ, sends us these YouTube videos about their community garden.


Watch video shorts of MFRC's community garden on the YouTube channel. The videos cover produce grown by Marianist Brothers Stan Zubek and Esteban Reyes in their garden. The produce includes red corn, okra, red bananas, watermelons, habaneros, beets, blackberries, cucumbers, zucchinis, spinach, sweet potatoes, cherry tomatoes, bell peppers, squash, and herbs such as cilantro, basil, anise, and flowers such as sunflowers and more. The garden also supports the lifecycles of butterflies, such as the monarch butterfly and lady beetles. One of the reasons for their wonderful produce is the natural organic compost encouraged within the garden.
