Notes
Alex B met twelve members in their homes about how they can meet while not going against the guidelines of COVID-19.He was with the chairperson of the group Saul .He noted that during the lockdown members were busy in their gardens.This is because some of them had just come back from their fields of gardens. He told them as it was necessary to form small groups that will help them to discuss and do projects . This is because the had hired land were unable to develop it because of not meeting. He told them as kibo group discussed with the district government officials how community can operate. He advised them to always to be conscious about all the diseases that can affect their life and development. He asked always to meet,discuss and begin working for their community,group and families. Alex B also managed to find out how the living mvule trees are doing. He noted that they are healthy and growing tall. He was also advised them to trim them to avoid growing many branches.He reminded them to go back to drowning board and plan what to do within the environment that can help them to do a project that can earn money for the group. Peter one of the members suggested that since it about season for community to start clearing places for next planting season,he asked the leaders to start mobilizing members for the garden project. My next visit,I will meet different group that would have been formed how they can plan for their group.
