Nicaragua Food Gardening


Here we are after completing a “Gardening for Life” teaching session (compost and kitchen garden demonstrations) in a very rural village in Nicaragua with the Farmer to Farmer program.  Peace Corp volunteer Brittney Stanley will continue the important follow-up efforts with this community.

Seeds for those in need in Nicaragua



100 individual seed packets (cabbage and squash) that we put together, all translated into Spanish, going on our next project with Partners of the America’s Farmer to Farmer program. There are thousands of life-saving seeds on this table. We will be there for two weeks teaching sustainable farming/garden techniques and how to better market produce in several different locations in and around Managua Nicaragua.  It’s going to be HOT! … Both in temperature and great learning information.
