Winter is in full swing at the farm. The coal deliveries have been done, apart from the odd delivery when we are notified of some emergency situations . The boys are busy in the green house now .. They are looking after the tomatoes, but also now planting the starters for in not just our fields, but for the spring seed deliveries.
Every year we deliver between 250 and 300 seed starter kits for people who would otherwise not be able to plant their gardens .
Along with the seeds we also provide seed potatoes and other plants we have started in the green house, like tomatoes and peppers.
We have a team coming the end of March, so this will be perfect timing for us to be able to host a party. We will need to place our order in the next few weeks for such a large amount of seeds , so if anyone would like to help us with this project, NOW would be a good time to donate .. We are going to need about $10 per family so that will be around $3000 total that we will need to raise . You can donate right here on the top right side of the blog ( Please put SEEDS in the memo line )
Another great event that we are planing is an event with the team from Possibilities International at the end of the summer . They are calling it SHOP TILL YOU DROP.
This team is made up of mostly women, and we thought it would be fun if they gathered up young women we know from Orphanages and families we know along with the girls from the families that help us. Our goal for this event is also $3000 These kids some of whom have never had the opertunity to go shopping and pick out what they would like, will have taht oppertunity...
We will be working on raising funds for this for the next couple months. along with being able to donate right here on the blog (put shop til you drop in the memo line ) Possibilities International is working on some other fun ways to give , like with the "shop till you drop Golf tourniment."
