IRC community gardeners - primarily elder, ethnically Nepali refugees from Bhutan - met with fellow gardeners at the Danny Woo Community Garden in Seattle. With the help of Mandarin-to-English and English-to-Nepali interpretation, Danny Woo Garden's 94-year-old Xie Pan gave a tour of his garden plots and explained why the garden is important to the community in the International District. In addition to exchanging seeds, it was also an exchange of culture, knowledge, and experiences.
