\"\"<\/a>In this new series by guest writer Ethan Bergman, we will consider the 5 P’s of gardening – planning, planting, perspiring, picking, and putting to bed – over the course of the next few months. Ethan is a Master of Divinity student in the Distributive Learning program at Luther Seminary, St. Paul, Minn. Bergman is also the associate dean in the College of Education and Professional Studies and professor of food science and nutrition at Central Washington University, Ellensburg. He was named CWU Distinguished University Professor in 2001-2002 and was named by the Washington State Dietetic Association as Outstanding Registered Dietitian of the Year in 2000. He is a past delegate and past President of the American Dietetic Association as well as speaker of the Academy’s House of Delegates. He has served on the Academy’s Educator’s Task Force on Education Reform in Dietetics Education and on the Evidence-Based Practice Committee. Bergman earned his doctorate from Washington State University.<\/em><\/p>\n

Pointing Forward<\/h1>\n

I\u2019ve always loved Ecclesiastes 3. Maybe that is because I am a big Simon and Garfunkel fan. Or, maybe I am a Simon and Garfunkel fan because I love Ecclesiastes 3. In any case, by quoting Ecclesiastes 3 in their cover of the Pete Seeger song \u201cTurn, Turn, Turn,<\/a>\u201d Simon and Garfunkel point out that there is a time for everything. That includes planting and harvesting. Seeds are planted, and the fruits of those seeds are harvested. But there is a lot of time leading up to that planting; and there is a lot of time between planting and harvesting. And there is time after the harvest.<\/p>\n

So let\u2019s consider the 5 P\u2019s of gardening:<\/p>\n

Planning<\/h4>\n

Planting<\/h4>\n

Perspiring<\/h4>\n

Picking, and<\/h4>\n

Putting to bed<\/h4>\n

So what time is it now? It is time to plan<\/strong> your garden!<\/p>\n

Independent seeds professional Ed Merrell has offered his seasonal tips for gardening on the ELCA World Hunger blog for Fall<\/a> and Spring<\/a>.\u00a0 Building on Ed\u2019s work, here are some more questions to help guide your gardening.<\/p>\n

Why do I want to grow a garden?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

It takes a lot of time. You hear people say, if you factored in the time it takes, it is much cheaper to buy produce in the store. But then you hear others say, it is so great to get your hands in the dirt and help make things grow. From a spiritual perspective, it is wonderful to participate in growing food that helps meet the needs of those around us.\u00a0 It is always awe-inspiring for me to participate in the miraculous rhythm of plant and garden growth.<\/p>\n

What is the growing season in my area?<\/h4>\n

The Old Farmer\u2019s Almanac has a wonderful website that provides you with specific information for your growing season that is precise and detailed.<\/p>\n

When should I start seeds inside or plant outside? <\/strong><\/h4>\n

Check out what I discovered about planting dates for Ellensburg, Washington. If you don\u2019t live in Ellensburg, not to worry. It specializes the information for your local climate.\u00a0 Here’s the link: http:\/\/www.almanac.com\/gardening\/planting-dates\/WA\/Ellensburg<\/a>. This site provides exact information about when I should plant different produce. For example, if I wanted to plant Swiss chard in Ellensburg, Washington (and who doesn\u2019t want to plant Swiss Chard!), I could get it started inside in mid-April, plant it outside the first of May, and harvest it throughout the winter.<\/p>\n

What grows well in my area\/climate?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Every climate has limits related to what grows well. I live in a dry climate in central Washington state. I have apple, cherry, pear, and prune trees in my yard. The neighbors would laugh if I planted an orange tree. It gets too cold in the winter. See the site above for more detailed information.<\/p>\n

How much space do I have?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

When you consider early, indoor starts, you will need to determine how much indoor space you might want to dedicate to indoor planting, germination, and early growth. \u00a0Also, keep in mind how much space you have outdoors and how you can best use that space. You may want to think of crops that work well together, as well as what crops may be planted multiple times during the growing season.<\/p>\n

What am I growing for my own use and what will I plan to donate to a local food bank or pantry? <\/strong><\/h4>\n

Call your local food bank to determine what produce they distribute well to their customers before you plan and plant your garden. That way, you can set aside enough space for the well-distributed produce that you plan to donate. If your church has a food pantry, ask some of the participants in that ministry what fresh produce they would like to see on the shelves.<\/p>\n

Linking Back<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Now let\u2019s link back to what we produced from last year. As Ecclesiastes 3 and Simon and Garfunkel remind us, there is a time to harvest. If we had a good harvest of potatoes and onions from last season, how might we use that in our meal preparations today? We could store our potatoes and onions in a cool dark closet throughout the winter.<\/p>\n

If you are looking for a recipe, here is an idea from the publication, Cooking Light: <\/em>Mashed Potato Soup<\/a>! \u00a0<\/strong>It is healthy and nourishing, tastes great and is quick to make. It takes about 30 minutes to produce from beginning to end. You can also specialize it with toppings, such as green onions or grated cheese. Hold the bacon and substitute vegetable stock for chicken stock for lacto-ovo vegetarians, and substitute pureed silken tofu for the yogurt for those who follow a vegan diet. See the full recipe below.<\/p>\n

If you grew garlic and thyme in your garden, you could also use those in this recipe. We grow our herbs in pots on our patio. We also arrange them in a fashion that reminds us of another Simon and Garfunkel song, \u201cScarborough Fair<\/a>\u201d \u2013 \u201cparsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme!\u201d<\/p>\n

Until next time, remember,<\/p>\n

There is a Time for Everything, and a Season for Every Activity Under Heaven.<\/em> Ecclesiastes 3:1<\/h4>\n
