An Update From Montrouis

June 15th, 2011

Garry Maurice and his team have been very busy of late working on our property in Montrouis. We now have only ten internally displaced persons residing there so we have a bit more room for our various Sustainable Nutrition Project initiatives.

As you can see, Garry has been training Haitians in building hutches to house the rabbits that he is using for his project. And the rabbits continue to reproduce at a steady pace so we should be able to introduce this aspect of the Sustainable Nutrition Project into the mountain town of Fond Baptiste in the next few months.

Garry has also been busy putting in various garden plots to further complement the nutrition being provided by the rabbits in Montrouis. And we have entered into a partnership with the Montrouis Tree Project to start a nursery on our property.

Finally, Garry has successfully repaired the wall around our acreage. This is important not only to keep Mission Manna assets safe but also to prevent encroachment by nearby property owners.

Overall, our land in Montrouis is in terrific shape and as a result, is now very productive and will continue to be even more so in the future.

Mesi anpil, Garry!
