VEGETABLE GARDEN

The Vegetable Garden in Cangallo continues to operate and develop successfully. This year we have a had a number of successful tomato crops, cabbages, cauliflowers, carrots, beetroot, silver beet, corn, zucchinis, broad beans, lettuce and celery. A number of herbs also flourish in the garden all year round, sweet basil being particularly good this year. We were extremely happy with our first effort at cultivating sweet potato ("camote" to the locals) - a very popular vegetable among the Peruvians.

Michael, what a contrast to the barrenness of the landscape elsewhere in your photos. The vegetable garden is very symbolic. For me it epitomises what you are doing over there - creating new life and growth where it had seemed impossible, creating a sustainable future for people, renewing the Earth.
Warm Regards,
