Tomorrow the lovely French WWOOF's will return to the magical country of their birth. It has been of great help for them to be here and I see how the WWOOF program helps to promote the organic goals of our earth.
The hard work ethic that the WWOOF's bring with them country to country gives me a smile and a hope. While they were here -- they jumped right into the challenge within minutes of their arrival spending two long, hot, sunny day's pulling weeds in the garden. No task was to dirty or boring as they kept working for three weeks straight.
We traveled around the region looking at other garden's and country side and learned from each other new custom's and processes. They taught me many things during their stay. One thing that meant a great deal was the lesson of the art of being together at a meal time. The preparing, cooking, and then on to the enjoyment of the dinning and conversation involved -- a daily occurrence in their country unlike our "fast food" mind set. Waiting for each other and sharing the process. Being together. I am so grateful and appreciative of their time and help here.
