Went out to the farm today to get our weekly share of vegetables. I never knew how much vegetables could change my life! It's not just the vegetables, which are fantastic, it's about the experience. Going to the farm, seeing the animals, seeing the rows of gorgeous plants in the field, cutting fresh herbs & flowers, having a picnic lunch, knowing the farmer, supporting the farmer. This is all so much better than buying a 4 week old squash at the local grocery store. Hopefully, I will grow (no pun intended) in my ability to can and preserve so I can get more produce that can feed us through the winter. This has been a very exciting discovery for us and we're looking forward to eating more this way in the future.
My prayer for each of you reading this is that you would have similar experiences and activities in your life that are as enriching. If you do, you are truly blessed!
