Organic Farm


At ASPIRE we have build an organic farm where vegetables and tree fruits can be gardened, as well as a chicken coop.

This gives the chance to children to learn about agriculture, and to obtain the powerful sense of reward after investing time and work into something; in this case, taking care of plants.

 

 

 

 

 

Activities and learning possibilities that WWOOFers may engage:

 

1. To clean and separate the soil;

2. Drying the soil during a few days;

3. Mixing the soil and natural fertilizer (manure);

4. Select crop seeds to grow;

5. Watering and daily maintenance.

 

We are very confident in training the volunteers so that they have experience growing crops and vegetables. We also have other activities if they are interested to teach English for children, building, learning Khmer language, Khmer traditional dance and classical music, etc.
