Working in the garden

From left, Camdin Crow, 14, and Ruth Brooks, 14, both of Thetford, Vt., help Barbara Mason weed and mulch her garden in North Thetford, Vt., on Tuesday, Aug. 13, 2024. Camdin and Ruth first volunteered with Mason through Thetford Academy’s Operation Day’s Work program, which raises money for nonprofits overseas, and Mason appreciated their help so much that she invited them back to work with her in the summer. “I was lucky,” she said, “I got some good ones.” (Valley News - Alex Driehaus) Copyright Valley News.
