What is love? Its been quite strenuous coordinating the project plan via telephone and internet. We have no direct supervision of the Full Time Employee. Our man on the ground is a full time student who is busy with cricket and now exams. So we have to draw on our reserves of patience, perseverance and persuasion to get the project moving faster. Getting the FTE was important to ensure the safety, security and feeding of the chickens which are soon to arrive in large numbers.
We chose a variety of plants to support the pasture. One interesting plant is the Tulsi which has high medicinal value. Marigolds were also selected as these are nice to look at and also edible. We do realize that the chickens will probably peck at these plants while still young but it is a pasture after all.
