Helping in Our Communities: Harvesting

So this is a small way of making a difference in a community, but by doing the following you could make someone's day. I know in our neighborhood we have a great mix of ages and things we grow on our respective property. The other day I saw an older neighbor harvesting some lilacs and bringing them to a neighbors house to share who does not have a bush. My daughter saw this neighbor doing this and picked some wild flowers to give to the same girl. Kindness spreads and you never know who is watching :)

Last summer, I had a neighbor grow too many tomatoes and zucchini. Every time a neighbor would walk past her house she would offer one of two to them. We have other neighbor who are so awesome them have volunteered at a garden to grow food for the elderly in our community.This is the same neighbor I baked a loaf of bread for.These things all make a difference in your neighbors lives and work toward a trusting, healthy, happy community.
