The Lowlands Community Garden : Call for Donation

The Lowlands Community Garden is a new initiative being set up to provide local, sustainably-grown produce to the island community of Saint Martin/Sint Maarten.  All fresh produce will be grown using the latest ‘aquaponic’ technology, which means that in addition to fruit, vegetables, and herbs ; freshwater fish and eventually, langoustine will also be produced.

In this framework, we are looking for friends and well-wishers to be part of the team by making a donation to our ‘crowdfunding’ campaign.

In a new development, every dollar that you contribute (or have contributed) could win a Caribbean Dream Vacation courtesy of our wonderful friends at Caribbean Weeks. It’s as easy as 1, 2, 3! See below for details.

Our dedicated team of volunteers have begun clearing the greenhouse site of bushes, shrubs and vegetation, so that we can start the refurbishment of the frame itself, as well as the floors and walls.

Our next phase involves the fitment of a shade cloth on the roof of the greenhouse. This will keep out the strong UV rays from the Caribbean sunshine, while we work on the construction below.

If you would like to assist us in this next stage of the project, just go to:www.indiegogo.com/projects/lowlands-community-garden to make your donation. Every contribution, no matter how big or small, will go towards the Garden.
