Harvesting!


There is a story about harvesting,

It's the saying as you sow,

So will you reap, not always,

But some lucky would get to eat!!

At Leket, it was kohlrabi crop this year,

Looking like a turnip it was ready to harvest,

Uprooting it and distancing with the soil,

We harvested 440 kilos of kohlrabi !!

The happiness of hard-work in harvesting,

And knowing hungry needy will be fed,

150 families would not be hungry this day,

It's an immense satisfaction I feel when I think!!

Imagine the grain and vegetables we get,

So many hands must be touching them,

Giving their love and wishes to all,

And landing on our plate!!

A story of kohlrabi that I harvested!!!
