"Moringa moringa moringaaaa" we called out at Market.

Moringa powder and its audience
Originally uploaded by parisdelhi

The tree Moringa Oleifera has been my best received and largest (in terms of time spent) project.
The tree's leaves are veritable natural vitamin pills. They can provide much vitamin A, as well as vitamin C, calcium, iron, protein, magnesium, potassium, amino acids and may be eaten fresh or in the form of powder, as you see in the photo (though there is less vitamin C in the powder, the other nutrients a more concentrated in the powder than in the fresh leaves). Malnutrition can be combatted effectively with Moringa leaves. Moringa leaves can also be a great source of fodder for animal husbandry and the leaves are not the only useful part of the tree. The pods, the seeds, the flowers, and the roots also have important uses... Read some Moringa literature.

Moringa Activities at my post:
-We (my Togolese counterparts and myself) have trained the community health agents on the importance, production, and use of Moringa leaves especially for vulnerable folks like children, women having given birth, older folks, or anyone suffering from nutritional deficiencies.
-We have performed a Moringa planting campaign with the same health agents.
-We have sold Moringa trees, seeds, and literature at local markets and used that forum to get out the word about Moringa.
-We are putting in place a Moringa plantation next to the local hospital. The leaf production of the plantation will be dedicated to powder production for treatment of malnutrition.
-We are training mothers during monthly baby weighings about how to administer Moringa powder to their children.
-We have trained and or assisted numerous community service providers including nurses, agronomists, teachers, and development workers in Moringa production and use.
-We have broadcast radio show-trainings about Moringa.
-We have animated many formal and informal trainings and distributed seeds, seedlings, and or literature to many different individuals and groups in the region (informal trainings are probably the activity to which the most time is dedicated).
