The hospital vegetable garden



The hospital has its own small vegetable garden. This provides food for some of the patients but more importantly is used to teach the parents how to start their own vegetable patches when they return to their villages. Many of the children that are brought to the hospital are malnourished or suffering from malnutrition and a important part of the hospital's work is about educating the parents about nutrition and eating healthily on a very, very small budget.
