Instead of using a match to make the holes in the grain sack, this guy was holding an ember between two corn cobs.

Can you see how well this farmer took notes?

A volunteer stirs the liquid soap mixture. I couldn’t understand the lesson, but Matthews was suitably impressed with Ronnie’s presentation.

Someone in the village covered the new sack garden with this huge basket, to protect it from thieves and goats, I guess. Matthews thought it was hilarious.

I went with Adams, Mathews and Jedidah (office admin) to the annual Jinja Agricultural Show.  It was interesting to see new technologies.

The Ag Show was like a state fair on steroids. The crowds were huge, oppressive and there were hordes of uniformed school groups.

Sack Garden Matthews and I are starting to get around to our farmer groups to build demonstration sack gardens. After enduring my programs on record keeping and budgeting, it’s an entertaining show. I previously showed how these were made here. The village is supposed to prepare a place for the Sack Garden and provide a grain sack, a wheelbarrow of manure, three wheelbarrows of dirt, and rocks. This seems like a challenge, which is a bit frustrating, since we wind up having to do more site prep before the lesson commences. Still, it’s quite amusing, since no one can understand what we are doing until we have assembled it. On Saturday we made a sack garden in Ronnie’s village, after he taught how to make liquid soap. Matthews is a good teacher, always striving to interact with the people. I am more passive, allowing Ugandans to teach Ugandans. Plus it saves on translation time. My presence in Ronnie’s village is exploited to help draw the crowd though.
