We firmly believe that small-scale agriculture plays a major role in efforts to create a world that supports all of us. Through our gardening business, we have been fortunate to get to know and support hundreds of community gardening and grow-your-own projects.
A couple of years ago Noel met Peter and Kathy Wood of Bracebridge, Ontario at the annual Garden Writer’s conference. They have been assisting Ronnie Mwachia Mdawida in his efforts to improve people’s life in his hometown of Wongonyi, Kenya and the surrounding area. Most of the residents of Wongonyi are subsistence farmers. Through The Ronnie Fund created by Kathy and Peter, we were able to send a couple of shipments of our tools to Wongonyi.
We are happy that our tools could be put to good use.
“This old Man really enjoys working with this tool, he wishes he would have known it years before. I hear he uses it mostly to weed between tight spaces. He used to destroy a lot of plants but now that is history. He had to show me how he was using it between tight spaces of the seedlings. I Know its really efficient and makes work easy. Thanks! This was a worthy tool.”… Ronald Mdawida
