In 2007 ROWAN members began their pineapple project (who knew pineapples took 2 years to grow?). Their labor of love paid off in August of 2009, when they were rewarded for their patience with a beautiful crop.
Dedicated Labor
Every other day widows & caretakers would trek to the garden to maintain the plants & monitor progress. Trusty volunteers John & Christopher would take attendance, while joking with those who came late. Talk about accountability!
Here are some of our favorite pictures from the harvest, smiling faces & big, beautiful pineapples everywhere!
Harvested With Love
The big harvest in August of 2009 was an exciting moment for everyone involved. Bringing everyone together for a successful bounty, plus additional income for immediate needs. Be sure to check out more pics of the harvest, plus lots more to come!
