Under the scope of the USAID/REDDOM project for agricultural diversification and food security in Miches, Fundación Tropicalia has taken the final steps to bring this project to a close by working closely with the Agricultural Association of La Esperanza. As a result, La Esperanza has been able to resuscitate a greenhouse that was inactive for the last year and half, and by January, this community of farmers will be sowing the seeds of development, as they once again look to produce the common red bell pepper.
