This morning bright and early Josh, Freedom and Sidwell set out with all their goods to go and raise some money and awareness about Growing Hope. They took vegetable seedlings, a few herbs, bags of organic fertilizer and composted chicken manure to sell. They also took two big display boards with lots of pictures of the gardens and handouts with lots of info about the garden project. And…they sold it all!! With two hours left everything was gone!! They made over 1000rand about $125! A huge amount of money that will go a long way for the project. It was really exciting. Lots of people were interested in the project. A guy from the local farmers co op came by and after hearing about what we are doing said he wants to donate seed! We really experienced God’s favor in the whole thing. They even let us rent the space for less than half the normal price because the guy in charge is so impressed with what we are doing.
It is all very exciting and we are already looking forward to the next one.
Thank you Jesus for an amazing success!
