PROJECT ABUNDANT MINT: Mint washing

Children’s Accompaniment Circle
PROJECT ABUNDANT MINT

Jane heard from Ground Score co-founder Barbie that Right2Survive was wanting tea, especially mint tea. We have lots to share! How do we best accomplish this to expand our relationships and community? CAC invites collaboration.

Step 1 - Harvest and Wash
Last Sunday we had a sweet-smelling time harvesting mint and washing the mint. It has been drying nicely and is ready for Step 2.

Step 2 - Dry and Process
THIS SUNDAY, OCTOBER 2

Separating the mint leaves & more dry time.

MORE FOR THIS SUNDAY

We also have a short play to write together and act out!

If you love dressing up, you can bring some costuming from Jesus' time. We will have some items for you, too.

RSVP is always helpful.

Is there someone who would like to bring snacks? Let Jane know, thx!
