Greenhouses of shadow cloth
After experimenting for some months at
Curaçao, Roland understands 'greenhouses' are needed to grow
vegetables in this climate, on this soil. The 'rainy season' ended,
it did not bring the expected amount of rain. Green is changing into
yellow and brown. September or October, the start of next rainy
season, is far away. Permaculture can do a lot of good here, even
change the climate for the better!
Growing vegetables at Curaçao during
the dry season is only possible with 'greenhouses' of shadow cloth.
That's an investment. Roland is glad he found a paid job at Curaçao
(tourism). But to build some small 'greenhouses' with a wooden frame
and shadow cloth, he asks for help. Greenhouses keep iguanas out
too, animals eating vegetables. And Roland wants to start
with aquaponics.
Iguana at Curaçao
He calculated: for those investments he
needs a total of 700 euros. He asks you all to give him 10 euros.
Within a few months he'll send you a bag of moringa tea. Those who give 20 euros will get a bag of marva (wild origano) tea too.
