The MGS Garden


Everything is in season at the Maranyundo garden right now!  The school has a beautiful garden just outside my home.


Eggplants are eaten at least twice a week.


Bell peppers are added to EVERYTHING! They only come in the green variety here.



Kale is all over the garden. It seems to be the most common plant and take up the most space Which I love as green veggies are at a premium here. But I also find confusing because I have never seen a Rwandan eat it.  The only time I've seen it picked is for feeding the rabbits!


This plant is called Dodo. It honestly is not that special to be in season because it is ready all year round. But it is a special Rwandan food you can't find in the United States.  You can read more about the Rwandan diet here.
