Moving right along!

An update to an earlier blog is that Leighton has planted the maize and it has germinated well and has planted in a few different ways so we can show local guys the difference in production.

We are about to take the program out to the Church leaders who we are hoping are going to be the core guys who will teach and train many others. Leighton is also focusing on ways that will produce nutritional value as well as provide some income.

Sunflower seems to be the crop to bring in an income and is also very hardy. Here Leighton is planting and watering the new sunflower seed.

We are hoping to be able to get enough seed to our church leaders so that they will make a bit of money out of their labour. It would be great to see them take a hold of this project and make it work. And by so doing encourage others.

We are planning a teaching week from 24th Feb to 28th Feb which is the Bible school week and will be teaching Biblical principals and good farming methods.
