July 27 Garden Report

By Marilyn Lund

This was the week that Trinity Covenant worked with Hancock at the Garden. It is the first time that Bob and I have been back since May, and the Garden is flourishing.

On Tuesday Grace and Kit Ling and Norma and Jennifer and Bob and I worked with Amy Swanson and Carla and two other people from Hancock. It was a large volunteer group, and we worked hard for an hour. We dug 23 pounds of russet potatoes, literally picked up a lot of beautiful onions that had popped out of the soil and were ready to go, AND we weeded and weeded.

We also dug up a lot of corn plants that had provided food for an animal who was able to shuck the corn ON THE PLANT and completely DEVOURED EVERY KERNEL without taking down the plant or removing the cob from the plant. I am really amazed! But the people did not get that corn.
