Another Guatemalan Tree Nursery: Pisuche

Here is the nursery located at about 9,000 - 10,000 ft. The newly planted seeds are in the wooden construct front right. Wind is an issue and it comes off the mountain on the left side, just beyond the black plastic. There was an opening there which needed to be repaired. This was the first year for this nursery; the seedlings were started in November as I recall.



Here, there is no nearby water source so the little seedlings above, must be kept alive by water hauled from several hours away. Leaving, we saw this woman carrying not one water jug, but two. I could barely propel my body UP the path.
