Putting The Garden On Hold (?)

Due to Hurricane Ike, it looks like we need to put the garden on hold for now.  Many people are still without power, and many people (including myself) are still busy cleaning up the mess, either at their own homes or at other people’s homes, and lots of that will be occurring on Saturdays.

Now, having said that, we can still work on the garden on an individual basis, if you have the time to do so.  Remember that there has been some money donated towards purchasing materials for the garden.  If there are a sufficient number of you who are able to put some work into getting this started up, please let me know.  We need to begin by either creating some raised beds or simply tilling up some areas.

I had a dream last night about a garden full of herbs (I remember seeing lots of basil, in particular).  Could that have been God telling me to go ahead and plant herbs?  Would God care about something like that?  Absolutely!  It’s His Creation!  Could it have been merely a dream?  Of course.  Whatever the case, it doesn’t take much time to create some areas in which to plant some herbs, so, again, if you’ve got the time, let me know, and I’ll make sure the property is open for you to get in.

As I anticipate that I will be too busy over the next few weekends (I’ll be helping people in Baytown this weekend, and at a conference next weekend) to organize anything regarding our garden, I won’t be organizing any work days, but this is one way that using a web site can help us out.  If one of you want to organize a work day or two over the next few weeks, post a comment here on the site, and others can also respond via comments.

I will update the site again in a couple of weeks, and I’ll keep you posted on any work days that get planned.  Thanks for your patience as we get things cleaned up from the storm.  I hope that all of you are okay.
