This past week, women worked for three days in a rural region of Nicargua in a workshop focused on: making natural insecticide 2) seed-saving strategies 3) dehydrating leaves for later consumption and 4) cooking up organic fungicide to combat some of the imbalances that come from rain inundation and imbalances in soil. These are some of the women who try to stay put in their communities and survive with their own courage and skill, despite climate change and the pressures of an imbalanced ecosystem. Sometimes their families have to immigrate in order to feed the family from work found in Costa Rica or the U.S. These are women and their families are planting a path forward despite many obstacles in Central American and in the U.S. Hoping for a world in 2025 where there are more opportunities and far less cruelty.
