"Pulling of the vines" & picnic
Rescheduled to Thursday, Nov. 5--9 a.m.- noon.
From Karin:  The tomato season is over and it's now time for the annual "pulling of the vines".  This is not hard work, but we planted 2,000 plants, so that's a lot of pulling unless we have a nice crew of folks.  This would be appropriate for ages 6 and up, although younger children are welcome to tag along with parents.  

Our generous and kind farmer, who donated so many tomato plants to us, wants to thank us for helping plant them by giving us a picnic.  We will be working in the morning from 9 to noon and then have a picnic provided by Mr. Messner and his wife, Helen.  If you gleaned tomatoes or blackberries or helped with the tomato plants at this farm, we would love to see you!  If you didn't help earlier, you are still welcome to come.  

This will be my last season with After the Harvest, and I'd like to also thank all of you for helping feed people in need.  Please RSVP for attending the "pulling of the vines" and picnic by Tuesday, Nov. 3. 
Call Sandy at 816-550-5631 or sign up online.

Thanks to all who made our Harvest Happy Hour, a Celebration and Fundraiser for After the Harvest, a big success. Thanks to the many volunteers, event hosts and others who donated so generously. 

If you didn't get a chance to attend but still want to donate to help in the coming year, go here.
- From all of us here at
After the Harvest, thanks for
your help and support!
