The vertical gardens are thriving!
Posted 20 Mar 2024
I am delighted to share some photos of the progress of the garden towers.
The gardens have thrived since the locals planted their towers about three weeks ago!
The locals have been caring for the gardens through constant watering and weeding. At the special school, the gardens offer students an opportunity to experience practical lessons on good crop husbandry practices.
Very soon, they will provide a healthy diet for the students! Our staff have been visiting the homesteads and the Wamunyu special school to monitor the progress. So far, we have yet to experience challenges.
We anticipate the beneficiaries will start harvesting the vegetables for domestic use in the coming weeks.
