Hi dear donors & friends,
We want to inform you about our acivities in this project. Last week we had som rain here, so it was possible to plant trees. We had our Tree Giving Day (look at the report at the tree project) and distributed 2,000 trees to farmers.
In our project the compost heap was ready to 'harvest', so we decided to plant some fruit trees on land that a student farmer wanted to use to demonstrate the use of compost. Mr. Solomon and his students worked on the compost heap to make it ready to use and at the planting plot a bucket of compost manure was added at the planting hole, mixed with the soil, and after the planting some water was added to start the growing process. Hope some rain wil help the fruit tree to start growing.
The Environmental Conservation Committee will monitor the growth and new farmer students are searched in a nearby village to be tought by our 10 compost expert we have trained in 2024. They have all have received a T-shirt for doing so well and will spread the message of a fertile soil.
Thanks again for you contribution and donations and we keep you informed about the progress or new plans to improve the soil.
Best Regards,
Pendaeli Amos & Peter de Laat
