During his May 2011 state visit to Washington, Prince Charles also spent some time at LeDroit Park’s Common Good City Farm. The farm teaches children about growing food, healthy diets, and supplies food to low-income neighbors who help out in the farm.

The LeDroit Park Civic Association’s treasurer sent a thank-you note to Prince Charles. His secretary responded on his behalf:

Thank you for writing to The Prince of Wales with your memories of the Royal Visit to Common Good City Farm. It was extremely kind of you to take the time to write as you did. His Royal Highness also recalls that occasion with great fondness and will be touched to learn that the local community enjoyed the visit.
