Hi Garden Gang, ­
This Saturday, at 10:30 am, we will have­ a food giveaway at Stacey Crossing Apa­rtments. These folks are the working poo­r in our community. They go to work eve­ry day, but still might not have the mon­ey to pay the heating bill or other nec­essities.
Last Saturday, we put out fliers on thei­r doors to announce the event. People t­hat we talked with seemed excited about ­the Free Food Market.
We will have the Food Market at Stacey's­ Crossing on Saturday, at 10:30 to noon­. Prior to Saturday, please do not take ­vegetables out of the garden this week.­ Stacey Crossing has 44 apartments and a­ additional 20 single housing units for­ a total of 64 units. We could have a lo­t a folks looking for food!
We will also be providing simple recipes­ for cooking the vegetables. We are not­ allowed to cook a dish and have them ta­ste it..per Ohio County Health Departme­nt. (Food offered to the community must ­be made in a "permitted kitchen")
BOTTOM LINE: THIS A GREAT OPPORTUNITY­
**We need folks to help pick vegetables­ at the garden this Saturday at 8:30 am.­
**We also need folks to help out at the ­Food Market at 10:30 to 12:00 pm.
Please let me know if you can help out. ­Thanks so much, Deb Frazier

Hello All, garden is in full swing. With the ample amount of rain in the month of June, harvesting has begun. Swiss chard, kale, zukes, cukes,broccoli, and yellow squash. Keeping the garden bugs and disease free, has been a challenge this month. But the Lord has provided a abundant harvest.
Malachi 3:11
"Your crops will be abundant, for I will guard them from insects and disease. Your grapes will not fall from the vine before they are ripe," says the LORD of Heaven's Armies."

Many thanks to Jennie Reed who inspired me to understand the servant hood. What a gracious woman, who would get so excited when I would unload my truck of fresh fruits and vegetables from the C3 garden on Sunday morning for the church produce stand. She was always the first to greet me and thank the garden team for the efforts of the community garden. She will be sadly missed by the entire C3 garden and myself. Thanks for the inspirational words of encouragement.

It all begun in the garden, when sin separated man from God. But it was completed in the Garden of Gethsemane when Jesus accepted the punishment, so we might be reunited with Him.

Eden Restored - Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb down the middle of the great street of the city. On each side of the river stood the tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, yielding its fruit every mont…
