Its all coming together!

4/16/2015

 
We had the potluck dinner and blessing of the land with St. Augustine's tonight, followed by the community garden meeting and plot assignment.  There was a great turnout, with a combination of hopeful gardeners and interested church parishioners.  It was great to meet a lot of new faces and meet some of the generous people who agreed to allow us the use of their church land!

After we stuffed ourselves with tasty treats and community building, we headed outside to bless the land, the weather was cooperating quite well and it stayed sunny even despite the wind.  The neighborhood kids helped up give back to the land as part of the blessing ceremony.

The third treat to the evening was the garden meeting and plot assignment.  We have been stressing and worrying the last few weeks.  Will we have enough people interested??  What if there are too many people interested???  How do we please everyone???  AAH!  Panic!!!

The turnout was perfect - 30 available plots, 30 interested people.  There were even people interested in the correct heights and sizes of plots so that everyone got what they wanted! 

We look forward to seeing everyone out during the preparation and build events, along with spending the summer gardening beside new friends!

Additional pictures of the blessing and plot assignment can be seen in our slideshow :D
