Eat your greens

Before you can eat your greens... you have to PLANT THEM!!

Pre-garden! Look at those guaupo kids! Sweat bands and all - they were ready to work! They showed up an hour early to start diggin!
Carina (13), Leti (9), Diana (8), Morelia (11), Maura (12), Danaide (10), Ariel/Julio (10)

Leti resting after digging garden beds

Ariel (or Julio - he changes his name) shoveling abono (green manure) I swear it wasn't child labor!

Morelia and Leti sorting seeds!

Sowing the seeds with love!
We planted: Tomatos, peppers, onions, brocoli, colliflower, radishes, beets, carrots, lettus, swiss chard and parsley!

A job well done! Look at those muscles!

Post gardening --- a little bit of PC-Craziness! (please note this was a posed picture, we did not feel that a helmet was necessary for the picture - there is no need call PC-Washington to report us! :-))
Bikes and mattresses??
Well, when we cant drive cars or ride motos - bikes are the best option!
