Self Sustainable Mission Trips Nicaragua With World Missions Outreach

World Missions Outreach students in Nicaragua learn self-sustainable education by using recycled materials. Each WMO student learns how to plant their own vegetables, fruits, and gardens; thus ensuring, no child has to go to bed hungry!


 

So, How do you create a garden out of recycled materials?

1. Each student used a recycled plastic bottle as their planting container.

Snag your plastic bottle out of the trash and grab a pair of scissors!

Why is teaching sustainability & agriculture important?

WMO students learned how to plant their own vegetables & fruits!

This type of trade skill agriculture education ensures that no child has to go to bed hungry. This type of knowledge is a way to provide children with a way to create a self-sustainable lifestyle for themselves & their families in the face of economic adversities.

What will the students do with their plants?

Each student will be responsibly for taking the knowledge & tools that the team equipped them with to tend and take care of their plant. The students will come to school and monitor their seedlings daily. Once their seed starts to grow & produce, the students can take the produce home to share with their families!

Do Short Term Mission Teams Matter?

Of course they do! Still questioning it? Ask the 100 students who now have agriculture knowledge and are able to provide food for their families; not just one time, but for a lifetime!
