The Garden of Grace is a productive vegetable and flower garden that produces vegetables for our weekly Food Angel food boxes and, hopefully, GLOW once that ministry restarts. The Garden of Grace also provides an opportunity to walk a labyrinth for the garden itself is a labyrinth, an ancient spiritual discipline.
We are looking for a Garden Steward to help keep the garden in tip-top shape. No experience necessary! Just love and about 20-30 minutes per week. Here’s what the Garden Steward would do in their weekly 20-30 minute visits:
Adjust irrigation system as needed
Monitor soil moisture
Weed and monitor for pests
Harvest edible plants
Share successes through church news and social media
Implement "adopt a plot" if desired. Friends of the Garden and community members could take responsibility for X-number of bags. This is optional.
Someone who is interested—even someone who is not sure they can do these things, please talk with Pastor Sarah. She can easily show you how to do each of these things. Consider this job 20-30 minutes per week of peace and enjoying God’s creation!
