Restoring Lost Gardens/Food Production in 2018

By Marie Marthe Saint Cyr | Executive Director

Since the disaster of Hurricane Mathew, one can assert that the restoration of gardens continues since the depth of destruction of soil level, the lost of land encroacment in coastal regions and the salt water deposits were difficult to restore.  Although we have seen great progress, the greening of the area is evident and there is work to be done.

The lambi Fund truly conscious of the revival of the south has invested in 21 additional project of rehabilitation in that department.  In addition, there were among them,  the gardens for food production:

  •   OBDERGM produced 16,020 new plants (grapefruit, papaya, lemon and moringa)
  •   KOKAP renewed 60,000 coffee trees to improve production of coffee for local    consumer
  •   OPGDSC grafted 28,010 Mango trees added to their current gardens
  •   COPADET planted 11,321 new fruit and forest trees toward their 20,000 goal
  •   SADN production of fruit trees 26,000 diverse fruit trees in its nursery
  •   APTK and KPM are now actively producing 60,000 trees to establish greater density in reforestation goals in their respective regions in the south.

The gardens are evolving as our partners continue to produce, beans, rice, corn, millet that are milled in their neighborhood mills to produce cereal for daily food intake in these communities.Not only are we involved in restoring but also expanding food gardens and replacing old colonial coffee and cacao fields to improve each harvest.

Thank you for your support and your help in making these productions a reality.
