On Wednesday December 18, 2013, we collaborated with Mr. Kenni Figuereo and his wife Mrs. Yumary Castillo in Barreras de Azua with a donation consisting of tubing and the necessary implements to transport water to the family vegetable garden. We also paid for the plumbers to set up the tubing. The also provided seeds, seedlings and organic fertilizer.

Mr. Kenni’s garden is 60 x 15 meters and is partially cultivated with bananas and taros.

The seeds we donated included radishes, tomatoes, spinach, leeks, carrots, okra, lettuce, celery, beets, eggplants, peppers, melon, cucumbers and yellow squash. We also donated chinola seedlings and oregano seeds.
