Project Report | Dec 28, 2022
A new innovative gardener

By Markus Faigle | Volunteer

Ambohibary's New Gardener
Ambohibary's New Gardener

We hope you had a good holiday season.

In the last three years 10 villages benefitted from trainings or workshops by ‘Zahana’s bicycle team’ amongst other things on reforestation. (Making improved cookstoves, making bio-charcoal briquettes, bioremediation as pest control and crop improvement was also part of the workshops)

Ambohibary, one of the 10 villages, is very encouraging because they started their own tree nursery. They are currently already producing baby trees to be sold to those willing to plant trees.

Gas is the Gardner in Ambohibary. They were in total 20 benefitting from a special tailor-made reforestation training provided by Zahana, at our school in Fiadanana. He is the only one currently not getting a salary from Zahana who has implemented the technique. His nursery is actually better than the one of the other 4 gardeners paid by Zahana. We plan to change our approach after this season and implement his innovations in all Zahana nurseries.

And yes, if you are in the fortunate position to think about donations for 2022 we hope you might consider Zahana at the end of theyear

 
Happy New Year!
