Our RED tomatoes, WHITE onions, and BLUEberries will be exploding this month in the garden!




Greetings garden friends.   

Praise God for the abundant harvests of food, membership, and fellowship in our garden!  Our summer season is in high gear and filled with God’s Goodness!  Despite the rising temps, many of our spring veggies are still prospering to include plantings of Romaine lettuce, onions, arugula, beets, and kale.   All of the garlic has been harvested and shared with lots more curing to be shared later.  We have enjoyed plenty of potatoes with a later planting due to be harvested within the next couple of weeks along with  regular harvests of Swiss chard, basil, and soon to be tomatoes!  The cantaloupes are creeping, the cukes are climbing, and the beans and blueberries are beginning!  Thanks be to God!

Also this month, we look forward to enjoying together that first ripened tomato sandwiched in between some Duke’s mayo (and a little pesto:) at our annual Tomato Sandwich gathering to be held this year in conjunction with our Vacation Bible School celebration luncheon on Sunday, July 28th at 12:30 pm.   Mark your calendars with more details to follow!  Invite your friends!

Thank you everyone for your prayers and support of our garden.

It WILL be good!
