dreaming of spring

springWe are especially sick of winter this year – we have all been sick at one point or another throughout February, and we’re ready for spring to hurry up already. Grant and I have been planning and scheming up plans for our home garden, of course. We ordered some seeds (as usual) from Nature’s Crossroads, a local seed company just down the road in Bloomington. They’re offering two free packets of Siberian kale seeds with every spring order through March 15. We’re still working on our big plan, but I’ll share it here when we get things figured out.

In the meantime, we would love to have you help out with Plant a Row for the Hungry – at home and at our community gardens. We are hoping to have a small demonstration garden at Grace this year, too, that we’ll certainly need your help maintaining. In addition, Shepherd Community Center has a wonderful garden/food program, and they’re always looking for volunteers. Of course, Grace’s Choice Food Pantry could always use your help. Our Creation Care team is really ramping up, but we need your time and help.
