Bountiful Crops

Who knew packs of seeds could make such a difference? On Sunday, I had the privilege of visiting a community in La Libertad, El Salvador where we were hosting a food distribution. Though known to be a very dangerous area for it's kidnappings and robberies, Convoy of Hope is no stranger to this community. About a year ago, God blessed Convoy of Hope with the opportunity to work in the area distributing packets of seeds and setting up a gardening tools community sharing program.


After the outreach, one of the local farmers gave the team members and me a tour of his fields. Proudly he showed us all the raddishes, squash, and many other veggies that he is growing. Using the tools donated through Convoy of Hope and given by the local church, he told us that he was able to terrace all of his land for planting by hand in just three days. Here are some pictures of his produce!





Compassion is making a difference in this community in El Salvador. Farmers are working together, the church is being strengthed, and vegetables and fruits are growing in absolute abundance!
