ATC rocks at creating sustainable solutions with good design.
The Bee Boys rock at it too.
Gaspar from San Pablo la Laguna, has been working at a permaculture farm and got his Permaculture Design Certificate, training him in sustainable agriculture and earthworks design to build top soils, retain water and increase diverse agricultural production on small plots of land.
In 2014-2015, ATC worked with small solar water oxygenators to create healthy living environments for a collective or rural women tilapia fish farmers. Gaspar volunteered to help us in this project and to learn about raising tilapia and snails for family nutrition. Now its his turn, Gaspar came to ATC for help installing a solar water oxygenator for his young family's tilapia tank!
Now Gaspar can sustainably increase protein and Omega 3 production on his land, making his family healthier and food secure for life.
The Bee Boys continue on their quest for sustainable living through earth-friendly diversified farming!
