Gardening sessions in “Yalla! Pour Les Enfants” summer camp

*The kids planted onions in re-used plastic bottles*

Over the past two weeks, FHF has delivered sessions on gardening to unprivileged Lebanese and Syrian children, as part of the summer camp activities organized at the educational center in Aley managed by Yalla! Pour Les Enfants.

*Learning how roots grow by planting onion bulbs in water and following-up on their evolution*

Students, teachers and parents attended the training sessions that were given by FHF experts, and participated in the practicum that was organized in the small garden of the school.

Now that the onions have developed roots, let's plant them! :) — *Now that the onions have developed roots, let’s plant them! 🙂*

The project partners hope to raise enough funds to rehabilitate the school garden, hence enabling the kids to produce healthy and organic food starting October, when they are back to school.
