Planting in Nicaragua

Plants in Nicaragua

In November I was in Nicaragua for a couple of weeks,  

so I couldn't help but start some seeds.

 The Nicaraguans desperately need more vegetables in their diet, but
since I am here, you know we were all going to eat more vegetables.

So lets grow our own food!

Here is the garden gate

And here is the wonderful fruit!

I am so happy to see this here in Nicaragua!

I am continuing to teach my friend the secrets of 

growing great fruit.  We are adding egg shells and

coffee grinds to the soil for nutrients as we work earth around the

plants.

The other idea I want to show them is companion planting, which is planting vegetables, herbs, and other plants next to each other for the benefit of each plant.

We are going to be planting the basil next to our tomatoes.

This is one way you can help your plants.
