Come one, Come All!
The Inverhaugh Community Christian Foodgrains Project 2002
was on a 10-acre plot of land owned by and donated for the project by Ken and
Elizabeth Musselman.The field is located at the corner of 4th Line E. and County Rd. 21
in Inverhaugh - look for the
sign! The
dedication service was held on Monday, June 24, 2002 starting at 6:00 PM.
The evening started with a stone picking course with training & graduation
certificates provided for all ages for over 75 people! After the course, the
dedication service was followed by strawberries and ice cream for all at the
Goodwin's farm. Congratulations to the successful graduates of Stone Picking
101 offered this year – it was a job well done!
Thanks to one and all who attended the dedication, to those
who supplied the treats, the land, and to those involved in the production
and the harvesting of the soybean crop on the Inverhaugh Community Christian

week of September:
