GivFood: Dina Velasquez “I know that what my son is eating is healthy”

When the Home Gardens Project first began in El Espino, Dina Velasquez had no desire to cultivate her own garden. She was going through an emotional crisis and believed that any attempt to garden would be unsuccessful, but she reluctantly agreed to participate after much encouragement from her friends.  Now, Dina has a flourishing garden which has helped to ease her stress, and she enjoys serving as one of the project’s biggest advocates.
