Gan Mazon, Day 3: Reap What You Sow

Gan Mazon, MRT's Garden of Plenty, is now fully planted! Mazel Tov to everyone who was involved, especially to Josh Gilstein & Howard Bodner, who led this project from idea to reality. Today saw a whole new crop of temple volunteers join us: Jo, Peg, Alyssa, Alex, Jill, Gayle, Carly, Ilana, Cheryl, Kenny, Nadine, Kyle, Gunnar, Brook, Jeremy, and Helene. Most of our veterans returned. We also had a handful of new Boy Scouts, parents, and friends at work in Gan Mazon. God willing it will produce lots of vegetables to feed the hungry. But regardless of its yield, Gan Mazon has already produced success.

Please come see the garden and sign up to help, but remember the following: Gan Mazon is organic (pesticide free), for the benefit of local food banks, and all work should be organized through Josh Gilstein or MRT's Program Coordinator, Helene Messer.

In one week, we went from this:

If you have an idea for a project like this - bring it to our attention. We would love to help you make it a reality!
