Our team is building a hybrid living fence to keep grazing animals and curious neighbors out of our nursery in Boileau, Haiti. After setting the posts, they placed and secured barbed wire on the posts and wrapped the wire the length of the perimeter. Unfortunately, goats will even dig under barbed wire, so they’ve been planting cacti, called Plan de Lab. Our team uproots them from a location where they’re overgrown and replants them along the fence line. As the plants grow, they’ll grow around the wire, improving the effectiveness of the fence.
This second location will also be affordable because we won’t need to build a greenhouse since there’s an abundance of shade.
