    very rewarding yet on a

    small plot! This prompted

    the children to do the same

    this season. The yields are

    just very promising.

    Cabbages have been grown

    both in bags and on a small

    plot next to the home. Dur-

    ing the dry season the chil-

    dren water them every evin-

    ing. They have enriched the

    children diet.

    Tomatoes

    have also

    been grown

    in both sacks

    and in the gardens also sup-

    plimating on the childrens

    diet
