Flora and Fauna -- Domesticated, Mostly

You’ll see here that the school grows much of its own food, especially vegetables. In addition to vegetables (sukumawiki [between kale and collard greens], mchicha [like spinach], onions, and tomatoes), they also grow sunflowers for oil and peanuts for sale.




 Brother Soreng still takes care of trees including an orchard (which suffered from neglect while he was away for three months visiting his family in Ranchi, India).




Here are the ashok trees he planted near the dorms in order to break the wind:



The grove of mwarubaini trees (also called neem trees) that brother planted is doing well:


And now for the fauna:




The progeny of Moshi, who replaced my beloved Chui

Not watch dogs but rather fire-fighting dogs

They work at night, so they have every right to sleep during the day
