well here in Israel... the passing over is here- passover.. so everyone is busy with their spring cleaning....
but we are still busy with our garden projects!!!
its super hot here now.. all of a sudden its amazing.
you can see the plants are loving it. all starting to bloom and full of new growth
.
we have a couple sites for gardens... and that is great. one is in memeroy of a soldier that died in the Lebanon war, in 2006. His family feels really good about doing this project in his name. Here in Kiryat Shemona it is a reality that many people have died.. and this is one way to bring the community together. The family says that he loved nature, so a garden is a good way to commemorate him!
and we have another site, that we are still finalizing, with a group of the community members, in a different neighboorhood. And we have weekly meeting to talk about how to make this garden a reality. We want to do it in the central park of Kiryat Shemona- Park Hazahav, golden park( san francisco donated money- hence the name, and there is a stream that runs through which is called golden stream... some nice coincidences!!!) anyway, the park needs some rejuvenation and we think a community garden might be the answer!!! so it is looking hopeful!!!
