We spent the morning seeing the farm via land rover taking pictures and tagging GPS data. This is a beautiful time to visit Malawi. Everywhere you look is green and the Maize is low enough that you can see everything. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner were each quite a feast. We were introduced to nsima, an interesting food item made from corn flour and is served as a warm lump. In the afternoon we discussed ways
to increase the farm's crop production and considered ways the livestock can be introduced on the farm.
Derek Macphearson came by. He is a white Malawian who serves as a board member of COTN. His family has been farming for in Malawi for several generations. He has great hands on experience in caring for crops and animals in this environment and brings excellent knowledge to share.
