Many congregations, schools, and organizations are reaching out
into their neighborhoods to share God's story of abundance by
establishing community gardens, beehive colonies, and other
agricultural initiatives. They are creatively using their land and
property; providing training, inspiration, and cross-cultural
experiences for all ages; while at the same time feeding the hungry
and building community relationships. Too often food banks only
take non-perishables loaded with preservatives and sodium. Church
entities involved in agricultural ministries are able to provide
healthy food from their gardens to feeding programs, food pantries,
and others in need. This book tells the tale of 25 such communities
in story and image. An inspiration for others to develop such
projects, food and faith can go hand-in-hand as we get our hands
dirty while learning more about what Genesis 2 describes as God
"planted" a garden. Gardening can be seen on the rooftop of a
church in the city, beehives in the midst of a seminary, or a local
community garden alongside the church's parking lot. Discover where
this movement is alive and growing, and find ideas for starting
your own "food and faith" initiative in your own backyard, roof, or
front porch.
