Skilled Konparet Bakers

Rosnie, Marie Maude, and other women on our nursery team are becoming experts in baking breadfruit konparet. We were able to put 60% breadfruit flour / 40% wheat flour in the recipe today, giving the konparet balanced and super-packed health benefits.

We’re making enough konparets to distribute to 15 schools in June. As you can see below, baking konparets has become easier for our team, but they need more tables because konparets should be spread out to dry more quickly and evenly. A $100 donation would allow our team to purchase a table and expand their work. Please use the button below to donate, and send an email to info@thehaititreeproject.org to let us know your donation is focused on the konparet table. Thank you!

Kouray Women: An-Hour Long Trek

An organized group of women hiked for an hour from Kouray village into the mountains to collect trees from our nursery to start reforesting their homelands. Our nursery manager Enel emphasized the importance of digging a big hole and mixing the soil with mulch before planting to keep the seedlings alive. They are taking home breadnuts, cacao, and mango seedlings that grew tall in our nursery these last few months. In the coming weeks, they plan to make the hour-long trek again for cashew, mahogany, and other trees.
