Miss and Mister North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University — Mariah Couch and Miles Norwood — and the university’s Royal Court joined volunteers from the Aggie Source food pantry and the Office of Leadership and Civic Engagement at the A&T Student Community Farm on Sept. 5.
The volunteers cleaned up flower and produce beds as part of the fifth annual Aggies Day of Service, which aims to serve, uplift, and make a difference in our community.
“I think a lot of times people forget the “A” in N.C. A&T.” Norwood said. “Agriculture is a very big aspect of North Carolina A&T, so for us to be able to come out and serve today is very important, not just to me and Mariah, but to the school as a whole.”
Volunteers also helped at other community locations, including assisting Greensboro Beautiful with picking up trash and distributing flyers announcing the university’s “Cross the Street: Tutorial Program,” which assists youths in nearby neighborhoods.
