Seeing CEFA

We finally made a trip to Gamboula this week.  One of the highlights was to see the CEFA project that Roy Danforth has been working on.  This is a 400 hectare plot of land that will be used for education and research on crops and trees for Central Africa.  It will be used to train Central Africans in agricultural methods and to do research on new methods as they apply to Central Africa.

There is lots to see there and I will occasionally make other updates to the work there.  So for now enjoy an overview in pictures.
