The Children's Garden - Flash Fiction

Carrot Ranch

The children had worked so hard in the early spring, picking good locations that would have sun exposure, getting the soil ready, planting seeds and seedlings, and finally marking each plant to be with popsicle sticks. Watching them work so diligently brought joy to my heart.

Lettuce, carrots, onions, pumpkins, and potatoes were all lined up in perfect lines.

This was a project for a group of Sunday school students who were growing these vegetables for the food bank.

When it came time for the harvest we were all astonished at the abundance it brought.  Many would be fed. 

This flash fiction is written for this weeks challenge over at Carrot Ranch. In 99 words (no more, no less) write a story using harvest. If you'd like to join us, pop by the ranch, say howdy, and join. We'd love to see you there.
