farming + good adults + at risk teenagers = fry my socks off

Carolyn's dear farmer/social-worker friend Amy Truby in the news again:

Ripe from the Farm is Remi Vista’s job skill training program for youth 16-21 years old. Siskiyou Employment and Training Employment Program (STEP) refers the youth to Remi Vista which then provides job skill training in their Farm program. -here

...

“They learn a lot about team work, about working together to accomplish a common goal. Everything they do at Ripe from the Farm helps them develop personally and professionally,” Truby noted. “It’s a very successful program for the kids and for the community."

(wow Amy wow)

if aslan gives such attention to the appearance of wildflowers—most of which are never even seen—don't you think he'll attend to you, take pride in you, do his best for you? what i'm trying to do here is to get you to relax, to not be so preoccupied with getting, so you can respond to aslan's giving. people who don't know aslan and the way he works fuss over these things, but you know both aslan and how he works. steep your life in aslan-reality, aslan-initiative, aslan-provisions. don't worry about missing out. you'll find all your everyday human concerns will be met.
