Organic Gardening Project
Inside the Village’s terrace, the Organic Gardening Project was launched in 2004 with the goal of creating islands of a harmonious approach to agriculture within areas of environmental and human devastation - increasing awareness of the consequences of war and, at the same time, demonstrating positive strategies for healing and living. The farm is now providing about 60% of the vegetables for the village and there is a hope that it can cover entirely the local need and sell extra products to the market to get money for the children.
The team will help with clearing site, preparing soil, cutting grass, planting vegetables and fruit trees, cleaning a fish pond and redecorating the flowers in the garden. Additional activities may include planting trees, moving breaks, collecting garbage and painting walls etc. Normally, everyone is expected to work 4~8 hours a day and about 5 days a week.
Since our team members are quite young and unskilled in gardening work so the work will be safe and adaptable for them, there will be no using of dangerous machine and materials, and everyone will be provided with enough water and safety instructions and resting time during the work. VPV will also provide enough and proper equipments to do the work such as painting, brush, gloves, shoves and basket. Don't worry! See, this girl is really enjoying her work! Is she playing .... flute with our plain stick?
