The Biodynamics Foundation focuses on locally grown fresh food and job creation for those in need. They organised a fund raising event to raise $5,000 to finance a state-of-the-art greenhouse at the Jamaica Deaf Village near Kingston. ‘‘The people could not afford to eat fresh produce since lettuce is $10 a head, and the average income in Jamaica is $80 per week.’’
