Ward Garden Update

Hallelujah.!!!!! Like Moses and the chosen children of God under Moses who rejoiced when the waters of the Red Sea briefly parted, we have been able to utilize brief respites between rain to plant the onions, potatoes, pole beans, first planting of corn and peppers, and winter squash. Weeders and are now urgently needed to maintain the progress we have made.
The ward has scheduled two regular times each week to have members of the garden committee available for assistance and instruction for that week’s assignments. They are Saturday mornings and early afternoons and Tuesday evening. Members of the garden committee will be available for assistance and instructions during those times. Brother and Sister Doney will coordinate the work for Saturday Morning and afternoons and the YM/YW leaders will coordinate the Tuesday evening assignments
Once you have mastered the system and understand what needs to be done members can arrange to visit the garden at their convenience to contribute to the cause. Many have chosen to stop by before work. Others have taken the entire family for a family home evening activity. Some retired individuals have found that times during the day work best for them. Every individual, family and organization is encouraged and challenged to join in

We would ask that you check in with the Doneys or the YM/YW leaders each week so that we can coordinate the efforts. Grant Rawlins is our garden water master and you may need to check the watering schedule before e you go as well.

Members are reminded that the garden as its own blog which can be accessed by typing in, produceaplenty.blog. We will try to have the latest information available. Please check in regularly to see the progress and the needs.

Remember the words of the inspiring hymn. Put your shoulder to the wheel. “ The Church has need of helping hands, and hearts that know and feel. The work to do is here for you; Put your shoulder to the wheel “The work to do is here for you, put your shoulder to the wheel, push along. We all have work; let no one shirk. Put your shoulder to the wheel
