Well one thing for sure we have no time for moss to grow under our feet! We are off again. We arrived in Tarapoto on Monday. We brought Pancho and Martha and the tw
o youngest kids with us. Pancho and Ken went to Oro Verde (a company specializing in coffee and cacao) to speak to the ones in charge to get the Chayahuita started in the production of these 2 products. They will be helped with soil evaluation ( to know what if anything they will need to do to it for good growth), training (from how and where to plant to harvesting) and mentoring. It will be a process of about 4-5 years but this will provide them with some very good cash crops. We received a donation to start them in the first phase. Very exciting! Total it will require them to pay out about $4000-$5000 but the return will be great.

It was a fun time just being together. We all ate lunch together and off they went returning to Yurimaguas.
