The garden of our new
office/house in Kosti looked a bit empty and sandy, so Frank and a few of his team members
decided that it definitely needed a fresh green touch. A re-design plan was
made in a blink of an eye and yesterday the first plants were being purchased. Soon
after they had been planted, I observed that Frank’s ‘garden-creating-enthusiasm’ spread
quickly! The guard couldn’t stop smiling
this morning, while he was helping out with measuring the distance between the
plants. One of the young women in Kosti town whom we bought some trees, plants
and grass from, even wanted to join us to take a look at this new exciting design
garden. The men who worked on the concrete
floor outside of the office were exchanging ideas on which type of grass would
suit this new garden best. Another
guard seems to feel like watering the plants the whole day, just to make sure
they have enough to drink. I am really curious what this new garden will look
like in a few weeks time. But one thing is for sure: it will be made by a joined
effort of many green fingers!
