Community Garden

garden-800px_300

All are welcome at St. Timothy’s Community Garden. God placed plants on the earth and instructed us to tend the garden. The miracle of life comes alive from the planting of the seed, nurturing the seedling and ultimately reaping the blessing of the harvest.

Our goal is to provide gardening and food opportunities in our local community. The process of growing food in community is both a social and spiritual experience. We tend the garden in the shadow of our church, with God supplying the sun and the rain. The space provides a safe and healthy environment outdoors producing food for our own nourishment and those of others. The physical garden itself is an approximately 9000 square foot flat(not raised beds) garden in which all members participate in the labors and rewards. Shelf stable crops are grown and provided to the Council for Aging, Soup kitchen and local food pantries.

The garden schedule begins with planting spring crops in February and ends at the beginning of January. Seasonal vegetables are planted according to the calendar and weather. Work sessions are scheduled as needed with regular Saturday morning sessions scheduled during the main part of the growing season. These sessions start at 9:00 and usually last until 11:00 depending upon activities. Canning of produce provides another opportunity for participation as produce is preserved in our kitchen for additional outreach opportunities. Organizational meetings are scheduled around potluck meals using seasonal vegetables as we celebrate our blessings to God with one another and strengthen relationships.

No experience is required to participate in the Community Garden and all skill levels suitable from age 3 and up are welcome. Tasks for participants may include planting, weeding and harvesting, kitchen work, or delivery of produce for distribution. If you are interested in participating or learning more, please contact the church office at [email protected]

Genesis 1:29 God said, ‘See, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree with seed in its fruit; you shall have them for food.

Give Now Pledge

Giving is one of the most important spiritual practices we can develop. When we make a gift we bestow a since of value on the receiver, we recognize something of value within our own lives, and when times are lean, making a gift can be one of the only ways to free us from the fear of not having enough. It's simple math, if I have something that I can give away, be that 10 minutes of help or two dollars to share, that means I have been blessed with more than I need.

Give Now

Ascribe the the Lord the honor due his name. Bring offerings and come into his courts. - From Psalm 96, verse 8


Pledging is an important part of your spiritual life because it is a way of saying, "I don't know what lies ahead, but I am putting God first and I have faith there will be enough for everything else." Pledging is also important to the church because it is the only way we can make a responsible budget and then fund our mission and ministries. If everyone participates, even small gifts can get us where we need to go. Can you make a gift of faith and help St. Timothy's by pledging?
