Garden program during COVID times

Over the last year, we have been developing programs to teach elementary school children all about organic gardening. These programs are highly interactive and are designed to get children excited about permaculture and eating healthy.

Unfortunately due to COVID restrictions we have been unable to teach any of the courses. We have been able to continue running the school garden, nursery and greenhouse. The nursery is producing plants like chaya , lime, lemon and papaya trees that will one day produce fruit in a local families yard.

The food that has been produced in the greenhouse and main garden is being distributed to local families. However a comprehensive, integrated program has not been possible at this time.
