Cinco invernaderos m\u00e1s tarde, el Pastor Daniel Kwatuha ha creado una exitosa carrera agr\u00edcola en el invernadero y est\u00e1 comprometido a compartir su m\u00e9todo de \u00e9xito con otro ministerio de la IPHC en Kenia. Invertir en un invernadero para una iglesia, escuela u orfanato de la IPHC proporcionar\u00e1 alimentos y fondos para estos ministerios en los pr\u00f3ximos a\u00f1os. Una vez que se construyen, una variedad de cultivos se pueden plantar y cosechar para el consumo que se reducir\u00e1 los costos de los alimentos. La cosecha restante puede ser vendida para proveer ingresos para el ministerio.<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">Un invernadero construido con materiales locales puede durar 5-10 a\u00f1os con poco mantenimiento y el beneficio de la venta de verduras proporcionar\u00e1 fondos para el mantenimiento de modo que el proyecto pueda seguir ahorrando y ganando dinero para el ministerio en los pr\u00f3ximos a\u00f1os. Una m\u00e1quina de la germinaci\u00f3n de la semilla acelera el proceso de hacer una semilla en una planta viable causando la germinaci\u00f3n sana en 7-14 d\u00edas. Esta m\u00e1quina suministrar\u00e1 pl\u00e1ntulas a los invernaderos y tambi\u00e9n crear\u00e1 otro negocio de vender pl\u00e1ntulas a los agricultores locales.<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">Creemos que este proyecto encaja perfectamente con la visi\u00f3n de People to People de no s\u00f3lo ofrecer ayuda humanitaria, sino tambi\u00e9n dar poder a la gente y crear sostenibilidad.<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><\/p>","author_name":"","jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/ptp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2013\/08\/greenhouse.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/ptp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/319","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/ptp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/ptp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/ptp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/ptp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=319"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/ptp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/319\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/ptp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/320"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/ptp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=319"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/ptp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=319"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/ptp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=319"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
