New connections through Bolivar Garden Saturdays

A new year and new opportunities to work with other schools and colleagues.

 

Professor Lionel Manrique of Colegio Philadelphia reached out to me after he had heard about the work that we are doing in the Bolivar Garden. He was invited to come to a Bolivar Garden Saturday and spent a fantastic sunny morning harvesting coffee and learning about the agroforestry system we have produced at school.

Lionel saw the cacao plot and the coffee plot. We collected coffee and were dismayed at the encroachment of Broca in our coffee.
