Food Grains Project 2002

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 food grains field. Here are the 2002 results from the harvest in the last week of September:

  • Soybean yield of 11 metric tonnes realized = $3200.00

  • Foodgrains receives CIDA 4 to 1 matching funds X 4

  • Inverhaugh Community Christian Food Grains Plot = $12,800 to the world’s hungry

Canadian Foodgrains Bank is a Christian-based food aid and development organization that collects donations of grain, cash and other agricultural commodities for distribution to the world's hungry.
