After service on Sunday, our community took home over sixty pounds of freshly picked, organically grown fruits and vegetables from the Throop Learning Garden which was established in 2010 as a project by Transition Pasadena. The bounty included: Blue Hubbard squash, plums, Chinese bitter melon, golden purslane, purple tree collards, grapes, cucumbers, eggplant, amaranth leaves, yellow zucchini, and bay leaves. This is what can happen when a crew of dedicated volunteer gardeners - joined by the direction of experienced Head Gardener George Patton since 2017, the support of inspired Pastor Tera Klein and the appreciation of the entire Throop Unitarian Universalist Church community - give the earth the loving care and attention it deserves.
Love made real!
