we have been in ecuador for about a week now. So
far it has been a good time. We arriver to Rio Muchacho farm and got a
tour of the entire facility. The far belives in zero waste so every
thing is used until it is gone. the river is teh main source of water
for showers, laundry, and sinks. drinking water is colleced rain water
which is then filterd.
We began our work on teh farm by hooking uo
a drip system irrigation line. we also made many new garden bed by
weeding, and turning teh soil. we added compost to enrich the soil and
finally planted peppers, cucumbers, okra, and beans. we worked in teh
morning for a few hours and then break for lunch, in the afternoon we
work for a few more hours usually lighter work
