old macdonald had a farm

The rest of yesterday was so action packed that we didn't even have time to blog... contrary to the previous post..

Anyway, it's been great working with the refugees while they farm, getting more and more comfortable with them. They have a joyous spirit and fun sense of humor that everyone on the team enjoys. We help them practice English by asking questions like "How long have you been in Boise?" and "How is the weather today?" Megan in particular has been our ace in terms of interacting with them. In addition, we get our hands dirty too, helping with digging compost, making farming beds and even planting lettuce seeds. It's a refreshing and rejuvenating process! I think the cold fresh air makes it so we don't even feel too tired.

Yesterday was also our get work done on projects day. In the night time though, things got quite interesting...

[Stay tuned for the next episode of BWAM Boise]
