God’s FFA (Garden Project)
2026 was another successful and record-breaking year for the God’s Food For All Project. On October 19 we made our final delivery of produce for the year from the gardens to the New Opportunities Food Pantry. Our total for the year was 4874.25 pounds of garden-fresh produce with an estimated value of over $5000. Plus, this was a wide variety of nutritious vegetables. We want to thank all of the folks of our congregation who participated in this endeavor. People donated $1715 to the campaign. That means the gardening effort about tripled the value of our final contribution to the food bank. That amplification of the dollars was the result of many hands working in the gardens (26 gardens to be exact). Folks planted seeds and plants. Some donated grass clipping and helped cover open spaces with them. Other folks helped water and harvest. You can’t complete a project like this without a good team of volunteers. Thanks to all who contributed in one way or another.
