Gardens growing…. global
In March 2009, while the First Lady, Michelle Obama was planting the White House Kitchen Garden, I was in Guatemala, building 40 vegetable gardens with women.
Mongolian women with seeds
This weekend seeds were distributed in Mongolia.
We are now expanding the gardens on a global basis. I am organizing an international group to go back to Guatemala in June, and am starting a gardens project in Africa. Mongolia is already in process. India is also on the list.
The pictures you see are the women, distributing the seeds among themselves, and the gardens. This is a self reliance project where we build gardens in each womens home. We do it together as a team and each week tour several gardens to see the fruits of the labor.
