After developing the vermiculture project in January 2012, Mujeres Unidas worked with project partner Benita García of Fundación Agricultura y Medio Ambiente to support the initial phase of the vermiculture project. She held a series of workshops in Los Platanitos offering technical training in vermicomposting and assisted the women with maintaining the composting bins.
Review a summary of the training activities here.
