Aileen had a great time today leading a writing seminar in French to teachers of a local teacher training organization, IEPENH. These teachers will share these ideas and strategies with other instructors. Excellent time with excellent teachers!

This is our best vegetable nursery yet -thriving tomatoes, peppers, and cabbage -many thanks to our pigs for enriching the soil!

Planted corn today with about 20 farmers. A big job!

Can you see the difference between these 2 rice fields? The one on the right is for Planting Life, with a darker, healthier colour. The one on the left is for a... lady who hasn't had the money to buy fertilizer, resulting in a less healthy field. This would affect her crop yield, perpetuating the cycle of poverty. Planting Life plans to buy fertilizer to spread on the lady's field, hopefully giving her a better harvest. It is a clear picture of the plight of many farmers in Haiti. See more
