Why am I at Centre d’Agriculture St Barnabas (CASB ) ?

I come in St Barnabas because :
1) I want to know how to product vegetable and raise animal.
2) I want to be able to help wherever I go in Haiti after I graduate.
3) I want to protect the environment.

What did I realize at CASB ?

I have learned :
1) to take care of crops
2) to protect my environment
3) to take care of my body (hygiene, nutrition)
4) to take care of my small business

What do I want to do in the future ?

I would like to put together an agricultural cooperative and work with peasant farmers.

What do I think about CASB ?

To be a complete agricultural technician I would like :
1) to know how to drive a tractor
2) to know some plumbing, electricity, even computer.
But CASB does not offer these opportunities yet.
Gifts to the Cents-A-Bility Offering support St Barnabas Agricultural School in Haiti and other hunger fighting programs.
