We’re in the middle of our grape harvest, and are working on turning these concords into juice and jelly. The vines are loaded, and we’re just so thankful. You never can tell what the harvest will be from year to year, and often one crop will do better than the rest. I have to say that this year everything is competing for first place.
.
When we plant and start seeds we pray that God will give the increase, and our faith is grown when those prayers are answered.

"Therefore I say unto you, Be not anxious for your

"Therefore I say unto you, Be not anxious for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than the food, and the body than the raiment? Behold the birds of the heaven, that they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; and your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are not ye of much more value than they? And which of you by being anxious can add one cubit unto the measure of his life? And why are ye anxious concerning raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: yet I say unto you, that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. But if God doth so clothe the grass of the field, which to-day is, and to-morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? Be not therefore anxious, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? For after all these things do the Gentiles seek; for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. But seek ye first his kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Be not therefore anxious for the morrow: for the morrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof."
~Matthew 6:25-34

Nearly every morning we work in the garden. Always

Nearly every morning we work in the garden. Always early before it gets too hot. We harvest produce or flowers, weed, water, tend, or observe. The children usually stumble out sleepy eyed, sometimes with coffee in hand, ready to help with that day’s work. I often assign tasks to each person’s strengths, but know sometimes it’s best to have them do things out of their comfort zone. They visit and discuss all manner of things, help one another, and cheerfully do whatever I ask. It is always time well spent- cultivating both the soil of the ground and the soil of our hearts.

Our children love to forage, and often come in the house with handfuls of clover and mint to make tea with. It's a refreshing treat on a hot afternoon, super simple, and nutritious. ☘️
