Kabarore Teacher Training College is also a working farm supervised by a Catholic nun, Sr. Yevgeny (sp?). She can be seen a few times a week figuring out what to plant in the several fields that dot our campus. I’ve seen beans, shallots and cabbage being grown, plus some other plant I can’t put a name to. If I understood correctly, the school can sell the heads of cabbage for 30 cents a piece. We sometimes get cabbage mixed in with our beans at lunch, so that shows that she school is using some of what they grow to feed the students and staff. Here is a picture of a cabbage patch with boys playing soccer in the background.
