Antigua and Barbuda: The Antigua and Barbuda Tourism Authority visited the Greenbay Primary School for a fruit tree planting ceremony under the “Feed the Future” Initiative.

Also in attendance were partners from the Sustainability Unit within the Ministry of Tourism and Investment and the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry.

Visiting travel advisors, who arrived on Saturday’s first flight back with Air Canada and its tour operator Air Canada Vacations, assisted with planting the trees in the presence of the school’s principal, teachers and students.

Canada’s Director of Tourism Ag. Tameka Wharton and leader of the ABTA Wellness Strategic team, said this activity “reinforces the importance of maintaining a sustainable Tourism offering, which reaches into the community whilst promoting the destination.”

“The Wadadli Wellness Expo is a free event created by four Antiguan Women-owned NGOs: Orchard Blue Counseling Services, Odyssey Inc. Antigua and Barbuda, Chaneil Imhoff, and Mental Health Talk Antigua. 

Wadadli Wellness Expo is intended to highlight and educate members of Antigua and Barbuda’s society on the importance of holistic wellness that encompasses medical health, mental health, spirituality, education and creative expression. In addition to promoting holistic wellness, we also aim to connect individuals to resources that may support their wellness journey.

The wellness event is free! Wadadli Wellness Expo is scheduled for Saturday 15th October 2022 between 1pm-6pm at the Department of Environment, Antigua and Barbuda.

They welcome residents, expats and tourists to this free event for all!

During the Wellness Expo they look forward to providing attendants with free entry for a fun, holistic experience filled with music, performances, exhibitors and health practitioners and our Children’s Meditation Corner. 

Entry to the event is free so you can access and learn about local holistic health products for purchase.

There will be Wellness Exhibitors showcasing holistic foods and drinks, products and wellness information side by side our Health Practitioners varying in specialty medical care and mental health care who will provide you psychoeducation and products.

They welcome donations to fund their children’s corner involving a meditation series, arts & crafts, and more.
