Maria is excited to cultivate her own organic vegetable garden!

María lives in Tierra Baja, Guatemala and is a participant in the Patios Productivos project. She has been a homemaker for almost 50 years, because she never had the opportunity to go to school.

One of the ways Maria feels empowered is through dedicating time to her garden and yard. She cultivates eggplant, sweet pepper, basil, papaya, lemon and beans. She lives with her husband who works in agriculture and livestock.

Because financially her husband and Maria often struggle, your gift George of a garden kit is very appreciated.  Thank you so much for making a positive impact on Maria’s life!
