Alagie Touray Organic Edible Garden

Thanks for visiting this funding page!

My name is Joaquin Garcia and I have started this campaign to help someone I have met a few months back with a beautiful project to help his family.

He has a plot of land he wants to care for to be able to feed his family and community. However as it stands, he is losing a lot of the fruits due a number of factors

1. Access to water
2. Insects competing for the food due to lack of insect repellent plants and other insect predators.
3. Neighbouring goats and sheep invading the land and competing for food.

He has plans to increase the fertility of the land by organic means, even though he has pressure from his neighbours and nearby shops to use intensive farming chemicals. I have committed to help him and his family in what I can and will be doing a personal donation soon.

Please chip in whatever amount you wish to donate, and we will be updating regularly where your money has been spent by uploading pictures and videos at each milestone!

This video shows the distance between his plot of land and the source of water he has to walk to regularly carrying buckets back in order to irrigate his land. This is proving to be not enough to keep the plants from drying up in the increasing heat.

Provided below it's a formatted excerpt of my lengthy chats between myself and Alagie regarding the current state of his project and the costs associated to allow him to first feed his family, and next hopefully be able to help his community and beyond! :
