From the soil to the sea, the Bahamas Agriculture and Marine Science Institute (BAMSI) hosted almost 50 teens as part of its annual Summer Education Enhancement Discovery Series (SEEDS). The campers were able to learn about various food sources grown and harvested in The Bahamas. 

For the second year, members of BAMSI’s faculty and staff hosted the five- day summer camp for high-school students. The programme attracted students from New Providence, Eleuthera, Long Island and Andros.

The summer programme is designed to expose students to the BAMSI college, its various programmes, and familiarize them with the scope of the farm operations. The sessions are comprised of mini-lecturers, labs and field exercises in agriculture and marine science.
