Harvest Festival report

The Harvest Festival was a great success. The food and music were amazing and everyone had a good time. There was a small amount of beans, tomatoes, and raspberries left, so everyone got to tour the garden and take home a bag of fresh vegetables. It was a great opportunity for people from all three churches to share some time together.

The dishes celebrated the vegetables we grow in the garden: fresh salsa, tomato tart, green tomato pie, tomato jam, corn pudding, zucchini bread, cucumber and zucchini pickles, and lots more.

Local old-time musicians volunteered their time to provide a festive atmosphere for the proceedings. Their lively music was a big hit.


More pictures of the festival are including in the slide show below. As harvest season winds down, we'll be featuring more information on gardening and cooking, including many recipes featured in the potluck meal. So check back often. You can also receive updates via e-mail or through our RSS feed.

We will have some squash, cantaloupe, watermelon, and pumpkin on the way which will be shared with our neighbors. We'll have more information on plans for next year (including the opportunity for individual or family plots) very soon.

Thanks to everybody who helped out to make the day such a success.
