Both the teacher and the principal of the school in the village of Sisbilhá have their own greenhouses at their homes in the nearby town of Fray Bartolomé de las Casas, installed with the help of the Sembrando Oportunidades field team.
The teacher, Mirna Suram, is very grateful for what Sembrando Oportunidades has taught her. She enjoys sharing the produce from her greenhouse with her family and her husband. She also shares the methodology with neighbors and friends.
Her training reinforces the education provided at the school where she works and also inspires the teacher, Mirna, and the principal, as they see the main benefits firsthand in their own homes.
Mirna works alongside her husband, Ángel Quib, and their children, Emanuel, 15, Dayla, 12, and David, 9, to set up her greenhouse:
Here are some photos of teacher Mirna in her greenhouse, a project led by the Sowing Opportunities agricultural engineer:
