Because of the Aaronic Priesthood commemoration, slow seed germination and scheduling conflicts, we will not be having a general planting project on Sat May 23rd . Weather permitting we should be ready on the 30th for some major work which would include planting of tomatoes, peppers, successive corn plantings. at both sites, winter squash, pole beans and cucumbers..
There will be some opportunities for individualized smaller projects during the week for those who have time and would like to contribute. Noel will try to get the climbing panels for the pole beans and cucumbers set up. Some of our onions will need to be replanted because they didn't get enough ,moisture during the recent dry period. If you would like to help contact Dave Hebdon who can direct you to those needing help.
We still will need protective covering for frost sensitive plants by May 30th. Please contact the Derricotts if you have empty gallon milk jugs with the bottom cut out or gallon or bigger plant containers from nurseries.
Schedule in some time this summer to help with roto tilling, weeding, fertilizing, pest control, harvesting and processing. Those who have helped so far report that simply working together on such a good cause has been a blessing in their lives. The Lord has given us this opportunity for a number of reasons including producing food for consumption and storage, learning gardening skills, assisting those in need, fellowshipping and friendshipping. I promise you that you will be blessed in ways that you may not be aware of if you support this force for good. Thanks for all you do. Noel
