This week I have been marveling at the number of bees and butterflies around the Garden of Hope. We have pulled out the tomatoes, chopped down the okra (note to us: don’t plant okra in raised beds in the future…it’s hard to harvest without a step ladder), and planted some fall crops: turnips, beets, spinach and lettuce. While the cucumber plants look past their prime we are still harvesting cucumbers. You’ll notice a new structure near our garden. Thanks to George and Susan Moffat who have built our compost bin, which is now ready for use.
I am glad that we have an “embodied” faith. I picked some basil the other day and was reminded of the phrase, “O taste and see that the Lord is good!” (Psalm 34:8)
