We had the opportunity to tour some permaculture gardens in the Mwebaza Annex neighborhood! Students have been learning sustainable gardening practices with Teacher Ali over the past year. In addition, community members have been able to attend a free training and collaborate with him to gain insight on these practices, as well. From vertical gardens to developing organic fertilizer and pesticides, from herbs to medicinal plants, these gardens provide food, medicine, and income to families and community members with virtually no environmental impact and almost completely self-sustaining capacities.
Look closely. What plants do you recognize? What do you notice as you look closely at the photos? What can you learn from the plants and practices you see?
