April 2010 At The Lord's Acre

On our second Wednesday worknight, Dawn (a new volunteer) helps plant garlic. I'll go ahead and embarass her a bit by saying what a great smile and positive attitude she has about whatever it is she's doing.
 
Here, Kelley Hurst, our first of three interns, waters in the peas and spinach. Kelley is just the perfect fit for the garden and our family. We are so appreciative of her eagerness and the fact that she's a quick study. She's been here three weeks and has done everything from digging beds to help install our new irrigation line and freeze-proof spigot.
 
We invite everyone to come out and participate in this incredibly beautiful garden. Sometimes we hear rumors that we have enough help. Nothing could be further from the truth. This garden is about food for those in need, community and education. It's about all of us working together and learning together and helping together. We hope to see you on Wednesday worknights from 6:00 - 8:00. We'll be adding another worknight soon and if you have a group that can help at another time, let us know. We can probably rearrange our schedules to make that happen.
