She couldn’t have been happier than when her husband came chug- ging down Cove Colony Road towards their house in a 1940 Chevrolet truck. A retired test pilot working in Afghanistan last year, Paul Price searched the web for an old farm truck and found one in Indiana. He drove it across the country and kept it in a neighbor’s barn until Christmas day. The green truck, in near mint condition, has become the symbol for the Prices’ traveling produce market. It is from the truck that their business derives its name — Old Farm Truck. “He drove it up Christmas morning and said we need to call the business, Old Farm Truck,” said Jean, They farm the 10-acre Woods Edge Farm in Ottoman. The business sort of fell into place last fall, said Jean. The couple gathered gardening friends and neighbors some time ago and started swapping pro- duce. “It’s reminiscent of the old vic- tory gardens in the 1940s,” said Jean. “This whole venture is not so much about our farm per se but it’s about a group of family growers like myself wanting to Bake sale The ladies of Sharon Baptist Church will hold a patriotic bake sale begin- ning at 4 p.m. July 2 at Tri-Star Super- market.

It can be found from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Thursdays at the Village Nee- dlepoint in Irvington. From 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Fridays and 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturdays, it is parked next to Farm & Home in Kilmarnock. “We have a wonderful repeat group,” said Jean, who had sold out of her produce on a Thursday two weeks ago. “Now that people know we’re there, they are coming back.” Woods Edge Farm, about a quar- ter of a mile from where she grew up, includes pasture, vegetable, herb and flower gardens. It’s also home to free range chickens. This year the Prices are increasing their garden size and are starting to grow strawberries, raspberries and blue- berries. Although Jean shies away from calling herself an organic farmer (she’s not certified), she does not use chemicals on her plants. Nei- ther do any of the growers who con- tribute to the business. Jean, who has an agriculture degree from Virginia Tech, partners with responsible growers, many members of the Virginia Associa- tion for Biological Farmers. At their farm, the Prices plant rows of brightly colored flowers in the middle of their vegetables to draw beneficial bugs that eat the destructive bugs. “This business really gives smaller growers an opportunity to sell their produce,” said Jean. The weekly stock is limited to what is in season in the Northern Neck and Middle Peninsula. Right now, Old Farm Truck is peddling new potatoes, cabbage, golden beets, spring onions, lettuce mixes, chard and blueberries. “Our ultimate goal is to get smaller, local, organic fruit grow- ers involved, but they’re harder to find,” said Jean. A former nurse, Jean also hopes her business will promote good nutrition and would like to even- tually be able to accept Women, Infant and Children (WIC) vouch- ers for moms wanting to feed their children fresh vegetables. Old Farm Truck also offers jel- lies and jams from Westmoreland Berry Farm, hot pepper jellies by Cyndi and homemade loaf breads by Cathy Hemans. Former Deltaville resident Kym Rock will bring her “Fight Like a Girl” seminar to Lower Methodist Church in Hartfield Thursday, July 29. The free self-defense event for all women and girls will begin at 6 p.m. Her visit to Hartfield is sponsored by Lauren Figg, a contestant for queen of the 53rd Urbanna Oyster Festival. This is Figg’s community service project. Meanwhile, Rock is urging the community to visit fightlikeagirl.pro and cast a vote for her Pepsi “Refresh Everything” grant proposal. She is up for a $250,000 grant that will enable her to go national, certifying instructors in every state to teach her self defense course, said Rock. “Please vote once a day every day to stop the violence, rape, abduction and domestic violence against men, women, girls, and boys,” said Rock. “Please cast your vote once a day throughout the month of June. Together we all can make a positive impact.” Voting ends June 30. Women and girls also may register at the website to attend the July 29 seminar in Hartfield. Rock said her Fight Like a Girl project will: • Reduce abuse, abduction, rape and murder in the U.S. for all ages. • Create jobs and sustainable on-going programs in every state. • Train and certify “Fight Like a Girl” instructors and programs in every state. • Prevent, protect and save people from personal oppres- sion and attacks. • Unleash the powerful potential of children and women held back by abusers. • Empower all women and children to have a greater self-esteem and fulfill their dreams. A seven-time World Karate champion, Rock is the author of the “Fight Like a Girl” book series, a U.S. Mar- tial Arts Hall of Fame Member, a World Karate Union Hall of Fame Member, a former U.S. Martial Arts Karate Instructor of the Year, a former U,S. Martial Arts Weapons Instructor of the Year, and a fourth-degree black belt. A victim of domestic violence and a cancer survivor, she was trained in her martial arts career by Jerry Lemon of Gloucester at Jerry’s Martial Arts Academy. The daughter of John and Janet Blake of Hartfield, Rock now lives in Eagle, Colo. The United States Air Force (USAF) Heritage of America show band Satellite with 12 musicians will perform on the Irvington Commons to begin area Independence Day Cel- ebrations. The free concert will begin at 7 p.m. Thursday, July 1. This is the 20th consecutive year that a USAF musical group has performed in Irvington as part of the band’s Fourth of July musical outreach program. Folks are urged to bring picnics, chairs, blankets and flags. The band provided to Irvington this year will be smaller than in years past as the larger Concert Band, which usually entertains more than one million people annually in a six-state area, has been deployed overseas. “Although the band will not be as large this year, we will present a first-class Independence Day performance as we do every year with our professional airmen and musicians, along with vocalist Staff Sgt. Natalie Madison,” said Lt. Rafael Toro-Quinones. The concert will include Irving Berlin’s “God Bless Amer- ica,” “America the Beautiful,” and “Yankee Doodle,” other patriotic pieces and favorites such as Glenn Miller’s “In the Mood.” The “1812 Overture” will not be played this year as it requires the full Concert Band. “We can count on the USAF’s Satellite to put on a spectacu- lar show as part of our Irvington Concert on the Commons series. Concert-goers should come early to secure their spots and set up their picnics. We are again grateful to Chesapeake Bank for providing hot dogs, potato chips, and soft drinks, while supplies last,” said Irvington Village Improvement Association president Larry Worth. The Irvington United Methodist Church on July 3 will host a Christmas in July Bazaar, a Kansas City Rib Dinner and a bake sale. All three events will take place in the church educational building. The bazaar offers the opportunity to purchase hand-crafted, high quality Christmas decorations and gifts at rea- sonable prices, said church member Ned Crockett. The bake sale offers church members’ best and most popular baked goods. For $10 per meal, the men of the church will offer a complete take-out Kansas City rib meal with potato salad, coleslaw and hush puppies prepared by the River Market in White Stone, he said. To assure availability, tickets for the rib meal may be purchased in advance by calling Crockett at 438-5256, or Jimmie Lee Crockett at 438-6161. The event will take place a short walk- ing distance from the Irvington Farmers’ Market, said Crockett.

CAPINNÉ (Caring About People in the Northern NEck) is the name given an annual dinner and auction held by the North-ern Neck Rotary Club. The event raises funds for charities and programs.

The 19 events held thus far enabled the club to distribute more than $500,000 to organi-zations in Lancaster and Nor-thumberland counties, accord-ing to Rotarian Rick Varnier.

“Over time this name has become more a philosophy for the club rather than just an event name,” said Varnier.

The Northern Neck Rotary is preparing for the 20th annual CAPINNÉ Dinner and Auction at the Indian Creek Yacht and Country Club on July 17.

Members are procuring items to auction from local businesses and individuals, he said. More than two hundred items and ser-vices are traditionally given by as many generous people.

Apostle John H. Bibbens, senior pastor of Zion Church at Lotts-burg will host a two-night Loving Life Conference.

Terry Beatley of No Excuse Ministry will present “Stop Black Genocide in America: Zonging the Abortion Industry Through Edu-cation” at Zion Church at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, June 29, and Wednes-day, June 30.

The subtitle, “Zonging the Abortion Industry,” originates from the 1871 slave ship, Zong, that set sail from Africa to Jamaica with 470 slaves aboard and whose captain ordered 132 slaves be thrown over-board in an effort to collect insurance claims under maritime law for loss due to perils of the sea, said Beatley. This evil atrocity was widely exposed which catapulted the abolition movement in Eng-land, ultimately leading to the demise of slavery in America.

Beatley said she will expose the parallels between the slave trade and the eugenics social policy agenda, and profiteering motive of the multi-million dollar abortion industry of today.

Since Roe verses Wade, 50 million babies have lost their lives in the name of choice and profit, said Beatley. Maafa21, a recently released documentary, detailing Planned Parenthood’s deliberate targeting of black America will be shown and a discussion of pro-life answers to pro-choice arguments will follow the viewing of the film.

The goal of the program is to transform the culture through educa-tion so that society will reject abortion as a solution to unplanned pregnancies and demand personhood rights for pre-born children, she said.

Topics will include the history of abortion in America; how and why African Americans were first chosen as targets of the abortion industry; basics of fetal development; Biblical and secular answers to pro-choice arguments.

The church is at 2309 Northumberland Highway in Lottsburg.

Spring love song

The heat has been unusual in these parts of late.

It’s alright as spring is about sprung. There is nothing so grand as spring, most espe-cially this one. Every pore and fiber in my body is radi-ating love. What makes it so special is that it is a love that visited me from God himself. Once my answered prayers of loneliness found form on a rainy spring evening when Miss Hazel became my bride. So, let me refocus the earlier sentence. There is nothing so grand as to be in love in the spring. There is nothing so grand as being in love in the spring on the North-ern Neck of Virginia. Now, that’s an exclama-tion!

I am an emotional old fool, my response to life so familiar. I cry at the oddest moments, and laugh too. Way down deep in this preacher’s heart are hidden the words to songs, thoughts and ideas that my conscious mind has long forgotten. Fresh from the arms of my love recently I began singing a tune last heard from the lips of Nelson Eddy singing a duet with Jea-nette McDonald, a 1930s and ‘40s romantic duo. I see his handsome face and his tender embrace. I see him looking into Jeanette’s eyes and sing-ing, “Ah, sweet mystery of life, at last I’ve found thee.”

Many are the mysteries of my life, my ministry. We’ve recently come through the biggest: Easter. It is a time so special, so mysterious that the word itself has found no other use in common vernac-ular. “Easter” belongs to God, through Christ. “Easter” does indeed belong to the Church triumphant. We are Easter people.

Most local churches swelled to fruition on the past Easter Sunday as is the custom. Folks who regularly find reason to miss were attendance bound, duty set, and will not be seen

often twixt now and Easter next. It really doesn’t bother me. I find it part and parcel of the mystery surrounding my Lord, the Christ. What he did there on Calvary’s hill so long ago has such merit that it draws from the heart of many not easily quickened a duty to fulfill. It truly brings tears to my eyes. What a lovely mystery. ‘Tis yet another way in which my God speaks to me. It is not architecture, nor pulpit prowess that swells the

pews. It is above and beyond such trifling aspects.

When my God hung his son on that cross, he focused such power in that deliverance that it radiates across ages yet unfolded. When he hardened his heart to the prayer from the garden, he was seeking faces of children unborn, civ-ilizations unnamed. The God of miracles was viewing the harvest faithful.

On Sundays holy, when he swells the roll, I stand look-ing upon a crowd grappling with the sweet mystery of life. You know, it is a love story. It is a fantastic one at that. A preacher long inside Heaven’s gates was once asked how much God loves us. Raising his frame on tiptoe he flung his arms wide saying, “Jesus defined how much he loved us when he stretched his arms out as far as the east is from the west and then died with-out closing the embrace.” It is an ever-open invitation, a love sweeter than my own. That, my friend, is, as the 1950s TV host Ed Sullivan used to say, “a really big show.”

Sporadically since Easter, the crowds were missing, the faithful there, in churches

near and far. Choirs relaxed, preachers droned on. Life resumed a normalcy. Yet the mystery loomed. No one save God himself could have established such an entity as Christ. No one but God could have given the man of Naza-reth such a lasting commis-sion.

Easter upon Easter it returns to visit the churches. That Easter mantle pulls in the uncommitted, the dis-enfranchised, the raw hope-

ful, the penitent; yes, it even pulls in the curi-ous. I always wonder if we make the visitors feel welcome. I always worry that I might not have been at my best for such a grand occasion. I am always on notice that what we are about at the church-house is

so special as to exist beyond vocabulary, beyond the cal-endar. Beyond the mystery of Nelson Eddy’s love song, even the love pounding in my chest, God has found a love for us that knows no earthly comparison. It is truly the grandest mystery of life. How ever could he love us so?

No jokes emanate from this preacher’s mouth, no vitriolic expressions fall from tongue or cheek. I have no bad thoughts about those missing from pews weekly. I know that God loves them. I know that he wants me to expend my life, my ministry, trying to tell them the old, old story. I need not solve the mys-tery, because it did not begin with me. I need not solve the riddle because it is not only about me. I need be faithful to him who called me. Even that is a mystery. Why would he call me from industrious offices to organs and choir-sung stained glass, to strange pulpits? It is indeed a mystery. I revel in not knowing why. It is about God, not me. Ah sweet mystery, God loves us. Amen.

Reflectionsby Rev. John Farmer
