A seed is planted

...and just like that, St. Giles has a sustainability team. At our kickoff meeting today we kicked around some ideas for sustaining our church and our world.

Our first task is to establish a self-supporting organic community garden. As the garden grows -- and we grow with it -- we'll explore ways to reduce energy costs and our carbon footprint.
