RAINY DAYS IN THE BLUE ROOM

Team work!

It is rainy season here in Cochabamba which means the hills turn a emerald green and the horses spend their days grazing in the empty lots around the city.

We are trying desperately to get the "blue room" done and the seed sprouting underway.

Erin and Manuel volunteering

 TGFV (Thank God For Volunteers)....Erin has been with us for the month and has been amazing in her tenacity for this project. She hails from Washington state and works as a chemist but has discovered she has a talent for building shelves with not very straight knotty eucalyptus logs! She and I struggled together after Micha left (another TGFV!) to figure out how the heck you put these things together!!

This week we have been moving quickly thanks to Manuel who is visiting Erin from Peru and Pinki who is  always ready to lend a hand. 2 shelves are almost complete and ready to be put into production! I have included some fotos of them workin in the rain in the blue room to give you an idea of what we are up to.

The first shelf!!!

We have raised about $900 and still need another $1000 or so to finish shelves, set up a watering system and get the seeds. Thanks to all who have donated we really appreciate it and to those who haven't been able to yet even $10 or $20 goes a long way so if your inspired hit the button to the right of this post.
