<h1>Fighting wastes by teaching women how to conserve fruits and vegetables</h1>

As many of my readers know I come from the slopes of Mt. Kenya. In my region we grow tea, coffee, pyrethrum and lot's of vegetables both for export and local markets. Since the area is very agricultural the area is overpopulated.

People are hard working and they never say they are stressed or tired they just keep on working. During coffee harvesting periods we even worked under the rains. I grew up working, saturdays were days to do washing and till the lands. Everyday after school we did homework before dark as no electricity, prepared dinner and went to bed early.

School went on for 3 semesters in a year and during holidays we helped our parents work and work.

We have a lot of vegetables and fruits, but because they grow and ripen at the same time there is overproduction so they fetch little and this is why most people are poor despite working like hell.

Now, I grew up, married and left this village and now I'm a nomad around the world. I love it though I have now lived in different countries and I'm experiencing different cultures and everyday is an eye opener for me.

Would someone be interested to help me organise a week long working groups of women to help them, teach them how to conserve fruits and vegetables during the periods when they have plenty. Help them also find market in other areas for these products? Would you be willing to help us with the expenses?
