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.

    1. Thank you very much, we have had some problems iguana has eaten part of the plants cabbages and beans, the biggest problem is water the water taps are distanced from the school garden
      The boys have a hard time carrying water for the school garden,
      that is our greatest need, maybe you could help us with a long hose to facilitate the work of the boys we will be very grateful for your cooperation.
      Very grateful
