With Kesho eco-farm manager, Njau, on board, there was nothing for it but to begin introducing “environmentally friendly living” lessons to the Kesho house mamas and kids. Day one? Composting. Day two? Tree planting. Mamas and kids, under Njau’s instruction, soon came to understand that tree planting and nurturing would soon become an integral part of the daily operations at Kesho Leo children’s village. Afterall, Kesho will have an agro forest (where we regrow the timber we used to build Kesho Leo), a fruit forest (for delectable delights) and a eucalypt tree forest (for sustainable harvesting to use for firewood as a back for our biogas kitchen).
