Harvesting the onions

From 25 gms to 40 Kgms

The school has just harvested the crop of onions, turning 25 gms of seeds into 40 Kgms of onions, ready for school lunches. The growing area, Harry’s Garden, saves the school money but more importantly it teaches the children of pastoralist parents how to grow food. The school kitchen will have finished these onions around November, when the next crop will be harvested.
