Recently, CobraHead teamed up with Singing Rooster Coffee and Just Coffee to support rural development in Haiti. Singing Rooster has already been working with small farmers in rural Haiti. They bring Haitian grown coffee to the U.S. and work to get Haitian coffee (which is very good) established here. With the devastation in Port au Prince, many Haitians are returning to small towns and will likely be getting back to growing food. Through Singing Rooster, we are sending a lot of CobraHeads to Haiti to help with the gardening programs to be established there.
Of course, in the short term lots of emergency help is still needed. Partners in Health has a proven track record in this regard. Last week, we helped host a fundraiser in Austin for Better Future International-Haiti. DJ Chorizo Funk kept the spirits high.
CobraHead supports helping people grow their own food. It’s part of our mission, and we are pretty sure that small-scale growing is actually the future of agriculture. We are happy that we can help in Haiti, and we are always looking for venues where we can share our gardening tools and expertise with others.
