All of this produce was picked from MadCAAP's Helping Hands Garden from June 2 - 5.
We were able to provide fresh vegetables for 73 families this morning!
Carolyn has been one of the most faithful and hardworking client gardeners.
Not matter how hot or how weary she may be, Carolyn has a huge smile to share.
She is our Sunshine!
Many of those receiving food on Mondays are handicapped or elderly. Some have small children. Here are some of those who picked up food today and will have the chance to eat fresh squash, tomatoes, okra, cucumbers or zucchini for supper tonight. What a joy for me to see our plans and hopes becoming a reality!
YIPPEE!
What an amazing day of sharing made possible through the dedication and hard work of some very special volunteers and clients. Thank you to Harold, Dorothy, Vicky F., Daniel, Sheila, Carole, Shirley, Carolyn, Kermit, John, Karen, Olivia for being my "go-to gardeners" each and every week. We have also been blessed by the help of many other individuals & groups whose earlier work has been shown on the blog. There's still plenty to do that does not require a green thumb...like harvesting and watering, mowing and weed-eating. There's a spot for all! When you see what was picked in just a 4 day time frame last week...there's no doubt that on-going help is definitely needed.
Sure it's hot...but when we share the work...it's all good!
