Planting banana trees at the orphanage, in one year they will produce fruit for the kids to eat

Planting greens in the finished bed at the orphanage, this is a space saving technique where the bed is dug deep, hardpan is loosened so roots go down and dirt is replaced and mixed with layers of manure so that the bed is good for 4 years and more can be planted in the raised area

Her mother is in jail for killing her father with a machete...she is so smart and sweet and cares for baby Simon an abandoned boy....she was the hardest one to leave....she is ready for primary school...if anyone wants a direct contact to send money for her education, contact me.
