Director of Forestry, Wildlife & Parks Division Minchinton Burton says Hurricane Maria has provided an opportunity to outline and implement its new plans, programs and designs for the Botanical Gardens. The Forestry Division says it has not been able to fully implement some of the new ideas, because of the constant activities taking place at the gardens over the last several years. Burton added that the division has been in discussions with overseas based organizations which have expressed interest in working with the forestry division, in putting up projects to help enhance the Botanical Gardens.
