2018 - GRAS LI GARDEN GETS A SHADE HOUSE
Psalm139LOVE and Haitian Hope were very blessed to have Ron Lusk and Ben Fry from SUSTAINABLE FOOD PRODUCTION on our recent trip to Haiti. They were referred to me from Rad Hazelip of Love-a-Child where they have built 8 shade houses. In this video Ron Lusk talks about all the benefits the shade house will provide. Thank you God for such a wonderful blessing.

SHADE HOUSE PROJECT COMPLETED
Mission Trip Feb 27-Mar 5, 2018
We have been sooo blessed to have Ben Fry and Ron Lusk of #sustainablefoodproduction come on our mission trip to build a shade house for GRAS Li gardens in Monac. Brunot Jean Borgella Jodelin Jocelyn Azeme Frednel D. Antoine and Richard were excellent helpers on this project to the point they can probably build another one on our own! This will be a huge help in allowing our plants to start out and not get scorched by the hot sun. Thank you Rad Hazelip of Love-a-Child for referring these two hardworking men of God to come with us. John Draxton of North Dakota and his two boys Cody and Bernt flew into Port Au Prince and drove up to visit us, see the shade house and take a look at what we are doing. John works in the Leoganne area and is the president of IFOUSD which you should also check out . Thank you Michael Leo for the introduction.
SHADE HOUSES
Recently Jocelyn Azeme, our agronomist with Haitian HOPE
, was awarded a $500 scholarship by Rad Hazelip,
of Love-a-Child, to attend their three week intensive training in Fond Parisienne .
An agronomist studies the numerous ways plants can
be cultivated, genetically altered,and utilized to our advantage.
While Jocelyn was in training, he learned how to work in the shade house you see pictured.
The shade house is 10 feet high, 18 feet wide and 40 feet long
with a UV screen that has a 50% sun block rate.
This makes a wonderful place for a vegetable nursery where the young
seedlings thrive before they get transplanted into regular gardens.
Rad put Ron Lusk, the man who built the shade houses for Love-a-Child,
in touch with me. He and co-instructor, Ben, will be coming with us on
the next mission trip to build a shade house for our garden in Monac!
Ron Lusk’s ministry is Sustainable Food Production.
They specialize in teaching gardening techniques,
researching new and better crops, providing quality, and non-GMO seeds.
They also minister the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
This is a huge blessing as their charity provides this for us free of charge.
The shade house will take about 4 days to build and will be
a wonderful addition to our ever-growing gardens!
God just continues to smile upon us
