EARTH

Care of our planet

To cherish what remains of the Earth and to foster its renewal is our only legitimate hope of survivial. (Wendell Berry)

Community garden abundance

Abundance! Writes theologian Eugene Peterson, “Joy is a product of abundance; it is the overflow of vitality.”

Growing in the St. Paul Community Garden (in back of the home at 2025 Main St.) is an abundance of tomatoes, beets, turnips, cabbage, brussels sprouts, peppers, lettuce, basil — and surprisingly few weeds. 

Whatever the garden yields is being delivered to Café on Vine on Sixth Street in Davenport, or the Central Community Circle Food Pantry on Vine Street, directly across the street from the café.
