MOTHER NATURE

MOTHER NATURE


Mother Nature is changing her clothes
And Father Time is watching
In a world of malls, sports stadiums and concrete streets
We no longer care for Mother Nature
Mother Nature is real


Mother Nature could take a month off
And nobody would notice
While we ignore Mother Nature at our own peril
She has a way of slapping the ego out of the arrogant us
Mother Nature is real


We see her all around every time
She makes the flowers bloom
The wind blow
The angry black clouds stain out the sun
Mother Nature is real


For the last two hundred years or so
We’ve been fighting it out with her for supremacy  
Are we winning
Or have we already lost
Mother Nature is real


Majority of us don’t seem to give a damn
Our egos are so secure
We no longer thank her for our existence
Mother Nature is real

VERTICAL SACK FARMING

So I recently embarked on a journey of farming. Yes, am now a farmer, actually I want to train people on farm smart ideas I have recently practiced and are sustainable. This is how the journey began, I was idle and then started browsing through farming ideas.

Four days after planting the spinach Two weeks after planting Four weeks later the spinaches are blooming I planted spinach in the holes on the sides and cabbages, carrots and tomatoes on the top. This is one farm smart project am happy about and eager to teach and train...

ENGAGING YOUR COMMUNITY

  How do you engage your community? From my experience of working with and for the vulnerable community members I must say one of the best thing you can give to someone is a listening ear, giving people time to talk about what they are experiencing can help you visualize how to help them. Getting information first-hand from the people on the ground helps you develop practical solutions to their problems. Gone are the days one would wake up and think of doing something to help people in a community without seeking their input. Community engagement is basically bringing the stakeholders of a community on board to address issues affecting their well-being, achieve sustainable outcomes, ensure equitable decision-making processes, and develop relationships. It puts people’s voice at the heart of operations and programmes and start shifting the power imbalances that existed. When engaging the community you gain the trust of the people you serve and your work becomes relevant and impactfu...
