Hello everyone,
Things are really kicking in to high gear, just as I begin to see the end of my time with Adelante Mujeres this summer. I'm headed back to the MidWest on July 25th, just after the launch of La Esperanza Distributor.
Farm Updates
I spent some time this past week weeding on the demonstration plot. We also made great progress on the washing station, digging the trench for the drainage pipe and completing a drying table.
Distributor Updates
The majority of our storage supplies have arrived (we have 160 roughtotes and nearly 40 coolers currently). We started the process of labeling, numbering, and preparing all of these bins to pass out to the farmers who will be participating in La Esperanza Distributor this summer.
