F & F final 2012 news‏

AACRC Faith & Food Friends,

Thank You Garden Helpers

We thank

             everyone for another great year of gardening for others. We had 6 folks meet last Saturday morning to gather the rest of the tomatoes and carrots for Food Gatherers. Then we cleaned up the garden to end the season. Sunday morning many folks shared they were sad to see the garden done for this year because it looked so beautiful. Not only does the garden provide food for others, it also provides beauty to our church grounds that many enjoyed this year!

Deliveries to Food Gatherers

Can we hear a drum roll? ........... A whopping 460 pounds of food went to Food Gatherers from AACRC!!!!! That's something to feel excited about.

Reminder

If you are interested in joining the planning team in the spring or want to know what is involved before you commit, please get in touch with Barb, Deanna or me.

It has been a pleasure to enjoy another gardening season with you.

Thanks everyone!

Cathy Green

F & F Fall Clean-up‏

Friends,

This is a very late reminder about the Fall Clean-up scheduled for tomorrow morning at 9:30.  If it is raining in the morning, more than a mist, the clean-up will be canceled and Barb and I will tend to the garden sometime later, when it is dry.

FYI:

Today, Barb took over 100 lbs of squash, tomatoes and carrots to Food Gatherers and there is still more to go!!!   W O W!!!

Our garden has done sooooooooo well this year!

When the final delivery is made to Food Gatherers, I will send out the last note for this season stating the total number of pounds we delivered.

Enjoy the rest of your evening, if you get this tonight.

Cathy

• We thank the Stephenson family & the Okonkwos for tending the garden the last two weeks.
• The Okonkwos will tend the garden this week, too. This week, we will deliver all that remains in the garden to Food Gatherers and YES, they do take green tomatoes.
• FALL CLEAN-UP: Saturday, October 6, 9:30 AM. All are welcome to join in clearing out the beds to end another successful year gardening for others. It wouldn't have happened without everybody pulling together and doing a piece of the puzzle. How fortunate we are to have each others' help in making a difference for others. Praise be to God!

Deliveries to Food Gatherers

9 lbs were delivered to Food Gatherers 2 weeks ago!

It has been a pleasure serving with you for another year. If you are interested in joining the Garden Planning Committee next spring, please let Barb Okonkwo, Deanna Stephenson or me know. We would welcome your input and energy! : )

Thanks and enjoy the fall colors,

Cathy Green
