Moshi, TZ – Kisangasangeni School garden – 13 Dec 2012

The Tupendane garden shop team assisted the local primary school teachers and pupils to start a vegetable garden in mid December, 2012.

The teachers and pupils planted tomato and Chinese cabbage seedlings, and cuttings from cassava and sweet potato.  They also planted mchicha, mung beans, sitting beans and also planted Moringa trees around the garden to grow into a future natural fence.

Half of the garden is turning out to be productive, while sadly half is not!  No one is sure why, so the teachers and pupils plan to start a new garden nearby where the local people say that plants have historically grown well.
