Leogane guest house - provides support for patients and families of the blanchard health clinic and camelle voltaire womens' health center as well as housing for missions workers. Beginning in 2022 FHM started a community garden on the large parcel of land that the guesthouse is located on. The garden uses approximately a third of the land to grow vegetables and a third of the land to grow trees. The garden has been used for outreach to the leogane community in a variety of ways. The community garden provides jobs for local haitians. Workers are hired to plant the crops and harvest the vegetables. So far this year, we have planted tomato, hot pepper, and eggplant, our bumper crops. In addition, we have planted cucumber, cabbage, watermelon, sweet pepper, carrot, and a variety of herbs. We have also planted plantain, mango, and avocado trees which will produce fruit next year. Surplus produce goes to FHM staff and their families. Any funds collected from the sale of the vegetables go back into buying more seed and paying the workers.
