March 12th

We are wrapping up our projects before we leave in two weeks. We have two more home gardens to build before we leave while finalizing work at previous sites. After we leave there will be 14 DIG gardens in the Jinja area! We are building compost heaps and teaching compost building and maintenence as they are vital in building soil fertility at each garden site. The rains have been delayed but hopefully the rainy season is coming since it is so dry. We will be reviewing organic pesticides, water conservation, fence building, transplanting, seed saving , and composting before we leave. Every gardener will be eqiupped with the knowledge to continue growing healthy vegetables after we leave.
