Hi Friends and Family!

    We don’t know about you, but this summer is flying by, it’s hard to believe it’s already August! We hope that you’ve all enjoyed a beautiful summer filled with sunshine.

We’ve been getting many inquiries regarding the Fish Sunflowers field for this season. As most of you know, we announced in April that we would be planting a field at the Magnus Veteran’s Foundation this season. We started a fundraiser along with the Magnus Veteran’s Foundation in hopes of raising enough support to cover the costs of the field. Our goal was to raise $15,000 and unfortunately, we were only able to raise $2,000. The amount of money that came in was simply not enough to prep, plant and promote the field; we poured all we could into previous fields and can no longer personally fund future fields. The Fish Sunflowers field will be on hold for another season and the raised funds will go towards future fields as we continue to work on raising support for future seasons and Fish Sunflower fields.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 reminds us that “For everything there is a season, a time for every activity under heaven. A time to be born and a time to die. A time to plant and a time to harvest. A time to kill and a time to heal. A time to tear down and time to build up. A time to cry and a time to laugh. A time to grieve and a time to dance. A time to scatter stones and a time to gather stones. A time to embrace and a time to turn away. A time to search and a time to quit searching. A time to keep and a time to throw away. A time to tear and a time to mend. A time to be quiet  and a time to speak. A time to love and a time to hate. A time for war and a time for peace.” God has made everything beautiful for its own time. We have enjoyed the beauty of the sunflower fields and we will enjoy them once again when the time is right. For now, we are trusting in God’s plan, purpose and timing for Fish Sunflowers and the Sunshine Foundation of America.

Thank you for your continued support and encouragement. We love you and can’t wait to see you in the fields of sunshine in the near future. Until then, continue spreading the sunshine!

Love,

The Sunshine Crew

P.S. There are still a number of sunflower fields that will be open this season, and while Fish Sunflowers and the Sunshine Foundation of America is not affiliated with these fields, we do wish them the best of luck and a wonderful sunflower season.
