Church garden; the Rev. Jennifer Baskerville-Burrows
I found this article, “Eating only what grows around you”, a couple of days ago, and noticed the reference to an Episcopal priest. Below is a video of the garden at her church:
I really liked what she said toward the end, since I was hoping we could do something similar here. But, especially, with the tomato recall (which might be over now), and the monumental number of farm fields under flood waters, and increased food costs in general, this year would be a good time to plant something. And even if it’s too late to plant some things from seed, hardware stores, home improvement stores, garden shops, etc., are still selling veggie and fruit plants in flats or in small pots. It isn’t too late for this year. And, it is a sacramental act — even a prayer-in-action.
