Medical assistant Paul Kabuzi from Ruarwe health centre has approached Nyumba ya Masambiro with an interesting proposal. Behind the NYM buildings, lies some fresh, fertile land, which has been gardened in the past, but not for the last 5 years or so. Paul proposes to use that land to grow onions, tomatoes, coco yams and more to supplement the available vegetables for the community of Ruarwe. The profits of the sales of these vegetables will then be split between Paul for the labour of farming the land, and a small portion to NYM as rental for the piece of land.Â
We are delighted with the proposal and wish Paul all the best of luck this coming growing season.Â
