Once the hard work of digging trenches was done the irrigation went in quickly as did the planting up of all the rows. A few weeks later the garden began to florish and continues to grow rapidly. As of July 8th The Salvation Army food pantry has been blessed with over 69 lbs. of kale, 9 lbs. of lettuce, 16 lbs. of cabbage, 23 lbs. of spinich, 13 lbs. of peas, 4 lbs. of radishes and a small variety of other veggies from the garden. The harvest is only just begun so watch this space.

The children wrote some text about how the garden is watered . . . and warmed:
Warm under the clouds, the cabbage is growing.
The tomato is growing, damp with dew.
The plan with spiked leaves is growing and dripping with dew.
Humid in the shade, the pumpkin is rotting.
