On my recent visit to Senegal I had the opportunity to participate in an amazing cabbage harvest at the CREATE! community garden site in the village of Ouadiour.

Thanks to the solar powered pump that is providing 4,000 liters per day of fresh water for the gardens, cooperative group members have been able to grow and harvest fresh vegetables year round for use in their own homes and for sale in local markets.

And thanks to our superb technical team, the community is learning how to improve the soil, conserve water, manage pests and get the most out of their well tended plots.
