I would have liked to update last week, but I really like to include pictures with these things, and unfortunately my American batteries just ran out and the only batteries you can buy in Nicaragua last about one minute. Aaron lent me a couple for bit. There have been 3 major events these past two weeks. Yes of course, we love it here!

An exchange of knowledge, experience, and culture through volunteer work. October 20, 2012. Millet – L’Angelus, 1860 (praying for a better crop, originally painted as praying over their son who died in famine). When one is working with the earth, sometimes the earth chooses to remind them who is in charge. I’ve decided to try a bunch of rocks. Apparently chickens don’t like the feel under their feet. It just requires a little maintenance in the way of moving them out from the sprout as it grows. To my di...

An exchange of knowledge, experience, and culture through volunteer work. October 13, 2012. It’s fall up in those temperate climates nowadays. So if you have a yard and or garden, as you sweep up those leaves, and especially if you live in an area with drainage problems, think about this post. Then I came across this technique they’re implementing in Jakarta to deal with monsoons. To summarize, it’s basically a deep narrow hole in the ground filled with organic waste.

An exchange of knowledge, experience, and culture through volunteer work. Newer posts →. Where Your Coffee Comes From. August 3, 2012. Your coffee starts as a seedling in a seedbed. The seeds (coffee beans) used to grow coffee are carefully selected from the best plants on a farm. The best variety of coffee plant to grow depends on the growing conditions of the farm and the preferences of the market. During harvest season, large groups of migrant workers travel north from farm to farm with the harvest.
