Last update: 6 hours ago

Agriculture & Youth: Dominica farmer Ephraim Elijah Roberts won the OECS Young Farmer Award in Grenada, praised for diversified, resilient farming that includes livestock, root and fruit crops, fast cash crops, and bee production. Road Works: The Royal Grenada Police Force announced Balthazar Bridge will close to vehicles from Monday, 7 September until further notice, with set diversion routes and limits for heavy equipment. Local Traffic: On Sunday, 6 September (8:30am–4pm), traffic rules will be in place around the National Library in St George’s, including no-through access and no-parking zones. Education Services: The Ministry of Education moved temporary in-person services from its Tanteen compound to workspaces in the nearby Ministerial Complex, with key units available weekdays 8am–4pm. Parliament & Recovery: Parliament is considering a large EC$310.9 million supplemental appropriation tied to Hurricane Beryl recovery and new budget challenges, with Carriacou and Petite Martinique Affairs Minister Tevin Andrews pushing back on calls for a commission of inquiry. Cost of Living: Grenada’s first VAT-free weekend (28–29 August) drew big crowds and mixed feedback—some shoppers reported real savings, while others flagged traffic, transport limits, and confusion over qualifying items. Digital Economy: A panel at the Caribbean Internet Governance Forum urged Grenada to turn ICT into export-ready businesses, stressing incubators, mentorship, and building market channels. Health Research: A St George’s University of Medicine study reports ME/CFS patients have much higher odds of irritable bowel syndrome, pointing to a possible shared gut-brain link.
