The Commitment of Resource Bank Chapter Four Community F ve generations of my family were born and raised in the Malta community, and you may have visited our family business, Jonamac Orchard. My grandparents lived on Sprague Street, and I recall them having a large garden that they spent many hours tending, beginning with the first tillage in the spring, to planting, pulling weeds, and harvesting all summer and into fall. They also composted the lawn and garden waste so it could be reused each spring to fertilize the garden. Grandpa explained that when he grew up on the farm. there were no commercial fertilizers, so you had to use and conserve what was available because that was all you had. By mid-summer, they usually had more produce than they could use and eagerly gave it away. I think they enjoyed giving it away as much as they enjoyed eating it. My grandparents taught us that if you put in hard work and effort, your backyard garden would take good care of you, your family, and your neighbor's family. The same hard work and effort it takes to grow a garden is also needed to sustain and a community, but the rewards and the shared success are well worth it. grow Being a locally owned community bank means that everything is homegrown, from resources found right here. Our owners and employees may be your neighbors, sit behind you in church, or have children that play soccer with your children. Our business customers depend on the local economy to have viable, sustainable businesses so they can take care of their families. We all work together to make our local garden great. Stop in today to see how much of a difference being local can make. We would be honored to meet with you. Kevin McArtor.
