Fugate said it was the first time his family has participated in one of the Highland Youth Garden’s seasonal events and added that they all had fun getting to work on their artistic skills. According to Shelly Casto, the executive director of the Highland Youth Garden, they will host a smaller event on Nov. 20 from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. in preparation for holidays. “It will be our big produce blowout,” she said of the upcoming Thanksgiving Market.
