Church Work Day

This past Sunday we held a work day at our church.  The youth worked  along with many wonderful adults and children working hand in hand while learning from each other.  We have two beautiful raised beds that we planted many beautiful flowers, fruits, and veggies that we will be able to enjoy as the summer goes on!  Enjoy the photos and as the summer progresses we will try and post some updates!

Getting some of our pots filled with flowers and vegetables- peppers and tomatoes. 
Getting the raised beds planted with small and big hands alike working side by side, a great way to teach the next generation!
Trying to figure out what they were planting!
Some flowers that were almost taller than he was!
Many hands make light work, our wonderful watering crew!
One of the raised beds after we were finished filled with many fragrant flowers and even yummy strawberries!
We want to give a huge shout out to the Cub Scout Pack 990.  We could not have finished all the mulching without the help of the young men of Pack 990 and their families.  Also huge kudos to the Olivet Crew that came out to help, especially to Marilyn and Dennis Bettenhausen, and Anne Crousore for selecting and growing all of the wonderful vegetables and flowers! We appreciate everyone’s hard work this past Sunday- helping to plant flowers, strawberries, tomatoes, and peppers in our raised beds, weeding and mulching other flower beds and mulching trees!

See! The winter is past; the rains are over and gone.  Flowers appear on the earth; the season of singing has come, the cooing of doves is heard in our land.
~Song of Solomon 2: 11-12
