Many months have passed without a word about what's been going on in Malawi. We greatly apologize for our lack of communication. In the midst of a new baby and being on two seperate continents the newsletter has taken a backseat. Be assured however much is happening in Malawi.

Currently, harvest is underway. The participants have been diligently cutting the cornstalks and carrying them out of the field. Once the corn has been carried in from the field, the ears will be picked, the grain will then be shelled by hand, winnowed, and bagged.

The corn harvested from the field you see here will be used to make nsema for the feeding program. Nsema, as most of you know, is the staple carbohydrate in Malawi.

Again, we are grateful for all of you who generously supported this year's agriculture project. We are hoping to expand the project next year to include not only maize, but beans, and groundnuts.
