The Fish Farmers had lots of helps from all sorts of government and non-government orgnizations as sign shown, as you see Peace Corps was not on it, because I just learned that we "the aquaculture extention volunteers" are to be there to connect the tools and materials they could have or already had with the "how to" knowledges and skills. I like this humble posititon already.
The pictures were taken on the first day at the Adam's three fish pond harvesting. The larger fishes were for the market and the smaller ones were for the families I would think. The children went after the harvest and still pick out some fishes from the mud and BBQing and sharing to us too. After the harvest was done Adam took us to see the fish pond water benefited the vegetabel farms.
The second day, Adam was to take us for a couple of hours walk to a water fall that he like to go for a deep sometimes, for there were more things he can show us, like the burnt grass land to keep large animals out, the tree barks been cut for bee heaves - that kills the tree in the short time, the insects, the river...than came with tales of all sorts - true or not, hard to tell.....but all were so much fun.....only if we were in the hiking boots and tons of water and food.....four hours later - or more we got back to Adam's home and all were ash black or dirty brown and hungrey, but all agreed that it was a TRUE AFRICAN EXPERIENCE to these new comers' eyes.
The Third day was to travel back to ISTT - In Service Training Trust, Adam and another site hostess - Renaee were coming out for a conferences or trainings so already full vehicle squeezed in another two people. They were all people's people so we had a joyful 14 hours ride back to out skirt Lusaka.
