- “Giving A Hands Upâ€
- LOCATION: Punta Gorda farming village, (Belize), 2010
- STORY: This Sustainable Harvest International project of building a more fuel efficient and health producing stove was a team project of volunteers and local families. After successful working together we enjoyed visiting over a family prepared traditional lunch. In addition, we educated about sustainable practices and planted cacao bushes, supporting a fledgling chocolate making industry as well as eliminating need to “slash and burn†forest cover. This was a life changing experience for my great grandson and myself as well as for the local farmers.
