Riyad is a very dedicated gardener. His class has been studying about plants and where food comes from. This young man begged his mother to plant a garden in his backyard to grow his own food. While he does keep some of the food, most of it gets donated a local food pantry (North Fulton Community Charities). This is a great example of how the Natural World taught this young man about the true meaning of Service and Compassion.
