Yesterday was an extremely busy day for the Syrian families in Arsal, Lebanon. It was time to harvest the potato crop that they have tended and grown for the second year in succession. According to my friend Nour it was an excellent harvest! 300 families will be provided with 20 kg of potatoes as a result. Thanks to those of you who gave so generously to make this project feasible.
Here are pictures and a video of the potato distribution to families in some of the camps in Arsal, Lebanon. It never ceases to amaze me just how many miracles can be achieved when a few like-minded folk pull together, even over a distance of approximately three thousand miles in this case. Thanks to everyone who has supported this project, either by making a financial donation, or by putting in hours of hard work on the farm to ensure a successful harvest that has provided 20 kg of potatoes for 300 families! You are all heroes!
