Return to Kisii, Kenya


Classmates reunite!

Here we are World Food Day!
 We are back in the region of Kisii, and gathered together our graduated students from the 1st class in Masimba to share some new practices, But we learned from the local chief it happened to be World Food Day and we all decided to postpone the class till later in the month and go to the demonstration class the government puts on to celebrate the day! A change of plans happen often here, and you learn to flex. :)  Turned out to be a good class. They were
showing organic practices using compost, green manure, plant disease control, dairy cow health, and planting technics. We all enjoyed.

The next day we had a review with the 8 students in teacher training. Another educator from Nairobi, Johanna, joined us and 1/2 of the group left in the evening for Kebirigo (another village) as each group resumed classes in Masimba and Kebirigo. The first day went Very well!
Amazing how a Permaculture class can bond folks.  We will finish the week with classes and visits t the farms! It is a Beautiful region and I will send more photos as time passes.

Until then, Love to you all!
Blessings!
Cathy
