What we consider a great achievement, the municipality of the province of Coronel Portillo, where we are located, has contacted us regarding technical support for the implementation of a public medicinal garden as soon as possible. We are now coordinating the specific resources they will provide; so far they offer their plant nursery to grow the seedlings, enough space in a centric public park, and the labor required for both planting and mainteinance. Meetings with the municipality's tourism office will also be held.
We are really excited because the local governments have the resources to invest in such projects, they just need the guidance and support that a team with the experience and knowledge such ours can provide. Sooner than we thought, we have managed to promote the incorporation of local natural medicine into public policies in our province.
On the other hand, thanks to donations like those from GlobalGiving, we have replaced recycled wooden planks for new, studier ones, and added better soil in all plant beds and pots in the pilot medicinal garden in our facilities. We are happy to see how the plants in our garden are starting to bloom, produce seeds and get stronger as rain season comes closer.
