Haiti Gardening

  

Haiti has a tropical climate and as such provides an opportunity to “garden” all year around. Yet, well over 50 % of its people are malnourished, struggling to maintain proper nutrition that is so essential for good health and disease prevention. 

The main purpose of our gardening program is to help subsistence farmers achieve home food security by providing 

  1. Training-Training in proper gardening methods including: proper nutrition  (nutritional value of various vegetables), soil management (composting), water conservation (mulch), pest control (organic pesticides), etc. 
  2. Tools-Assistance with garden tools, the cost of which are often prohibitive for subsistence farmers with no regular source of income. 
  3. Seed-Provision of registered garden seed that is disease resistant and helps to improve crop yield.
  4. Access to water-We assist gardeners as and when needed with obtaining access to water for their gardens by providing a water bucket and a bicycle for haulage. 

Our programs to date have assisted well over 1000 farmers and gardeners in eight different farming communities, where we work with local farming fraternities to assist them create sustainable livelihoods for their members and for their community. 

How you can help ;

  1. Garden Tools - $100 provides a basic set of garden tools that can be shared among five gardening families.
  2. Garden Seed - $200/month is needed to cover the basic cost of garden seed including shipping costs from the US and Canada. 
  3. Trainer for gardening - $500/month provides the funding necessary to cover the ongoing oversight costs of the program (salary & operating expenses).
