Members of the Rotary Club of Warwick joined Steve Stycos at the Westbay Farm on Centerville Road Saturday to assist in preparing for the upcoming growing season. Among chores they performed were spreading mulch between beds of vegetables, weed whacking and planting plus some minor repairs to the barn. The club came to the assist of the farm earlier this year when it contributed proceeds from its Thanksgiving Day turkey trot to Westbay for the purchase of a riding mower and tractor.
