All our children know where food comes from

5 Cheshvan

Back to business before dawn today. Whilst the men and boys got on with the olive harvest and pressing, the younger girls were digging up root vegetables and onions to store for winter. Vered and Aunt Tirzah kept the workers fed and watered.

Even the toddlers had something to do. I saw two little lads who must have been about three years old squatting with their five year old sister shaking the dirt of the vegetables and looking very proud of themselves. Unlike city children, all ours know where food comes from and how we need to respect the land.
