The Dutch Peter Krijgsman volunteered to share his knowledge about growing vegetables. He worked very hard and together with the organisation ‘Farming God’s Way’ he helped to start a new project that is sponsored by an external organisation. The goal of this organisation is to disciple and teach people who live in poverty about growing their own food in dry areas. (www.farming-gods-way.org)
Six hundred m2 of ground is already cultivated and ready for the seeds. A fence is built around it. Our local staff member Viwe did the necessary courses and hopes to reap the harvest soon.
This will reduce the cost for the meals that are cooked daily in the different departments! We also expect that we will be able to sell a substantial amount of vegetables to make the project self-sustainable.
