The garden is ready for the gardeners!

After our first orientation session, a gardener plants her tomato plants!

Gardeners put their plants and seeds in the ground. Even the children help with the children's tools!

After the ESL class, a tostada dinner (YUM!) and then more planting in our community garden!

Our plants and seeds are growing! The irrigation system is fantastic!

Children play on the playground equipment while their parents work.

One of the Latina ladies remarked how great it was to see everyone working together.  She quoted Romans 12:5:  "so in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others."

Una de las señoras latinas comentó que fue fantástico ver todos los jardineros trabajando juntos.  Ella citó el versículo de Romanos 12:5:  también nosotros, siendo muchos, formamos un solo cuerpo en Cristo, y cada miembro está unido a todos los demás. 

Radishes--the first produce from the garden!

She's willing to share her radishes!

More radishes!

Our huge tomato plants get cages!
