As summer winds down...abundant blessings...

Although the sweet corn is finished, the rest of the garden continues to produce!  Jeff spent over 4 hours working in the garden on Saturday and Doc picked sweet corn, so and I had a large amount of produce to deliver on Monday morning!  Here are some pictures of this week's first delivery to the food pantry...

This was the end of the sweet corn for the year....

We had A LOT of beans this week!  :)

We filled two long tables with produce.

This mission has been such a blessing to all of us involved. We look forward to going out and "checking" the garden throughout the week.  There is always something new to see and we love to discuss the progress of the plants.  You'll find us spending time after services on Sundays talking about squash bugs and rabbits and plotting our defense against them. :)  We get joy out of sharing garden updates with each other, describing how much we picked or what we've seen growing.

The goal of this garden was to provide fresh produce to our local food pantry.  The outcome has been so much more for each of us...

2 Corinthians 9:6-8
Remember this:  Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously.  Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.  And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.

Feeling abundantly blessed....
