A Break From the Garden
It seems like every day I spend in the garden brings new experiences, new experiences that I actually enjoy. Today was a little different from the previous days. We did not work in the garden today. Today we went on a field trip. We all loaded our bags with water and off we went to the bus stop. Even though it was extremely hot we pushed through. Just minutes later we arrived at Bread For The City. Today they were having a farmer's market. I was so surprised to know that southeast has resources like this. Everything that was being given away was totally free, the only thing the people in line had to pay was standing in the heat. Bread for the City was giving away shoes, clothes, watermelon, meats, vegetables, and more. I helped bag watermelon. I was happy to see how hard everyone was working to pull this off. I left the center feeling accomplished because I actually helped make people lives better. I would not mind volunteering again in the future.
