Our Gila River Ward has us involved in raising a ward garden & pig. The young men & leaders
built the pen. The ward had a, family planting the garden day! Kelly helped ward
families plant the corn. He said it was a bit of chaotic fun!! The kids thought it was
great!!
Last week was our turn to feed the pig! I saved up watermelon rhines & carrot peelings
some fruit & hotdogs & table scraps. Kelly also bought a bag of pig feed to donate
incase we didn't have enough scraps.
We visited the farm, fed the pig & checked to
see how the garden was growing. The corn was nearly 3 feet high & their were zucchini
in the vines. The pig wasn't named for obvious purposes. The plan is to harvest the
vegetables & have roast pork for our Ward Christmas Dinner Party! We get to enjoy the
fruits of our labors!! Everyone is taking pictures for a slide show at the Christmas Party!!
