Brian Ahmed advised that Chris Ochaya has commenced construction of a chicken shed on the Tamarind community farm in Uganda. This is part of an ongoing plan to create a sustainable farm to support the local population.
With funding from our club and the equivalent in matching grants, Chris has already overseen the construction of a water pump and tanks to support the growing of crops and vegetables and to provide fresh water for the animals. In addition, a goat shed has been built to protect the goat herd. In this latest development, our club has donated another $2000 to enable materials to be purchased to complete the build of the chicken shed. When completed, the shed will look something like the one shown below. It will provide a valuable source of food for the locals.
