Moringa Moringa

March 13, 2010 by Nomad Foundation Leave a Comment

After all our talk of improving the diet of nomads with the Moringa tree, we still have none growing, so Bob said we needed to have a ceremonial planting. We planted 11 basins with three seeds each. It is a race whose will grow fastest.

Louine plants a Moringa.

Some hocus pocus from me to make it grow.

Sidi gets help from the kids.
Eating our first harvest–one tomato.

We don’t yet have enough water to do much–but it will come–our well now has seven meters of water standing, but we wait for the solar pump to be replaced.

Until then it is a donkey who hauls the water.
