Greetings Gardeners!
Our garden is growing and filled with an abundance of God’s
Goodness! Despite the heated temps, our
spring veggies are still prospering to include plenty of spring mix, Romaine
lettuce, spinach, strawberries, and radishes.
We have begun harvesting our garlic and turnips and soon to be sugar
snap peas and beets. Our potatoes are
doing great along with recently planted Chinese cabbage, leeks, celery,
peanuts, Swiss chard, basil, tomatoes, flowers, and popcorn with our melons and
squashes to be transplanted to the garden soon.
Our Food and Faith Bible study which began and concluded this past
month provided many blessings to all who attended as we nurtured our minds,
hearts, and bodies with God’s wisdom, food, and fellowship. Many thanks to Daniel as he helped us to be
ever so thankful to God for all He provides to include our garden in harvesting
food for many and planting the desire to work and take care of His creation
through the watering of His love to our community.
Mark your
calendars for Saturday, May 19th to attend the Wellness of Chatham Health Fair
at the Mary Hayes Barber Holmes Park in Pittsboro. The event runs from 11am-2pm… a day filled with lots of family fun as
we join other groups/businesses in reaching out to many in healthy lifestyle
and food awareness.
Our Mother’s Day Flower Sale will be on Saturday May 11th
as well as on Mother’s Day, Sunday, May12th. An assortment of lovely 4”potted
plants wrapped and with cards will be available for purchase at the garden on
Saturday and in the Concord Café on Sunday. The suggested donation is $5.00
each. Pre-orders are welcomed! Thank you everyone for your continued support
towards our garden!
Come grow with us…It WILL be good!
