This week I watched our hard-working fire department volunteers power wash and paint the old fire department buildings on Highway 9. These volunteers are not just dedicated to supporting the community, but also hard working at keeping things maintained and looking nice.
Equality Methodist Church welcomes everyone to join them for breakfast after Sunrise Service on Sunday, March 31, at 11 a.m., Easter Sunday Resurrection Service – He lives! Rejoice! Sermon title: “The Message of Easter,” brought by EMC Pastor Bro. Wayne Cowhick. Service will be held at Equality Methodist Church, 281 Alabama Highway 259 (off Highway 9) Equality, 36026. For more information call the EMC office at 334-541-4063.
Rodger’s Shrubbery has vegetables, herbs and flower plants available, as well as hanging baskets with flowers, Kimberly, or Boston ferns. So, looking full as we enter spring planting season. Still making plans to add native plants from Recreative Natives, mostly pollinators with a few trees like Paw Paw and American Persimmon. Also planning on bringing back some bay laurel trees and gardenia shrubs.
Jenny’s General has received a shipment of Amish rolled butter; however, can’t compete price wise with Winn-Dixie’s price. Jenny still has Amish cheese, jams, jellies, and preserves available. Very popular is the candied jalapenos, pickled garlic and pickled beets. Jenny’s is also working with ForJars to get canning lids and other canning supplies if possible.
Is there anything you would like to see in a small country general store that Jenny’s can investigate stocking? Jenny is very open for suggestions.
CJ’s Fishing Hole in downtown Equality has posted their spring/summer fishing season hours Tuesday through Saturday 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Stop in for your fishing needs. They have live bait, tackle and so much more. Follow their Facebook page for updates and share your fishing success stories with them.
I had the date wrong for the past couple of weeks for the EVFD Bingo, and nobody said anything until today. Please join in on Saturday, March 30, at 4 p.m. at the Equality Volunteer Fire Department Hall on Highway 9 for a fun night of bingo. This is a fund-raising event to support the Equality Volunteer Fire Department. Games are $1 a card and lots of fun. There are also concession sales, and all proceeds support the EVFD, so come join the fun.
Saturday, April 6, is First Saturday Equality Volunteer Fire Department’s monthly fundraising event, and they sure could use more baked goods donated for the bake sale, as well as your slightly used items for their rummage sale. Come join the breakfast for a donation at 8 a.m. and lunch starting at 11 a.m. Bake Sale and Rummage Sale both run the entirety of the day or until items are sold out. Come support our wonderful volunteer fire department.
I depend upon my readers to share with me what is happening within your organizations, churches, neighborhoods, groups, or family to share in next week’s column. Please contact me; leave a voice message or text 256-531-6460 or email at coosacafe@gmail.com.
