This is an exciting time for CPALI! I am in Antananrivo and on Friday will be sending our first crop to Thailand. Thank you to all who have made this a possibility! With this shipment we will have completed the "proof of concept" stage of the project. We now need to expand and continue to appreciate your help and support.
After shipping on Friday, I plan to return to Maroantsetra. The team has been gathering and drying seeds for the host plant, Talandoha and one of our farmers has even begun to gather and prepare his own seeds. The more the farmers take over while using our methods the better.
We will be spending the next month continuing seed collection, tending the trees and reviewing sites for future planting.
Finally, the CPALI annual report has just been posted on the CPALI webpage (http://www.cpali.org/2009_Report/CPALI_Annual_Report_2009.pdf) as well as our facebook page, CPALI Madagascar that is open to all. Please visit. Veloma!
