Review for Zuni Youth Enrichment Project (ZYEP), Zuni, NM, USA
ZYEP located in Zuni, New Mexico has helped another family to achieve "a sense of pride and success". This past summer, ZYEP reached out to the community to participate in a gardening project. With the COVID-19 pandemic creating an obstacle for everyone, ZYEP staff still found creative ways to continue to fulfill their goals. Our family received all the necessary supplies for planting, along with instructions. My granddaughter started her tomato plant even though she felt like she did not have "a green thumb". As time went by her plant kept on growing and to our amazement, it has continued to thrive, basking in the warm Zuni sunshine. Our family felt success in what might seem trivial to another person because of the participation of the whole family. This experience helped all of us get through the dark times that the virus has brought to everyone. Thank you ZYEP staff for bringing joy and helping us cope with something unpleasant. We look to our beautiful tomato plant as a "sucess story", to inspire us to continue with the practice of gardening.
