Lunch Ministry

Lunch Ministry.


Wildly productive.



Who do you target?  Why?


Providence conspired, for decades, to include Lunch Ministry in every Garden Design I create.


I say to certain clients. "You will have lunch and invite ________.  You'll join your Garden Club & host a meeting.  You will find a local Garden Tour, contact them and be included.  Friend getting married?  You will host a gathering.  You will send pics of your garden to xyz magazine."


She was gathering materials, above, for our lunch.  Things to talk about, information to share, not wanting to forget to include anything during our lunch.
.
These things are not done for others.  Lunch Ministry is for you.  Your spirit.  Giving away what has been liberally given to you.  What you get back is profound & humbling.

Garden & Be Well,     XO Tara

Pics taken at jobsite this month.  Same client as several previous posts.  Please tell me you know what to do with the dirty dishes at Lunch Ministry.

That looks warm and inviting, of course you know I'm looking at the pottery to see what might be hand made and it seems like she's got a collection. Joy.

Lovely little essay in a nutshell, er...eggshell...um teacup.

Let the dishes soak in an old fashioned dishpan until the mood strikes.
