In spring, communities like Monte Grande and Pachuquilla prepare the soil for seeding. This is the best season to sow backyard gardens, that’s why Casa Centli will continue to work through the program “Sowing hope to reap wellness”.
This program will give technical advice to build organic gardens in childrens’ homes, deliver seeds and seedlings, tools, and constant advice all the way to sowing. Furthermore, children will learn to take care of the land and the natural resources like our ancestors did to keep balance in our world.
The objective of this program is to teach the children the benefits of a self-sustainable and organic life, teach them how to work home gardens, unify families through a common activity and benefit their economy.
