South Rock Creek 4-H Club President Gabe Hobbs discovered his love of gardening three years ago.
It was the same year he joined 4-H and entered a county-wide garden contest for members. It was also the year of the COVID-19 quarantine.
“He started gardening for just something to do during 2020 when the whole world shut down,” said his mother, Charity Hobbs.
