SEEDS OF PARADISE – FOR SOUTH FLORIDA AND HAITI!
UPG has been sending seeds and cuttings to Haiti since 2008, usually in small quantities. They include both Native Plants (for reforestation) and Edibles (fruit trees and plants).
This Major Event is made possible by: * UPG’s trusted Partners in Haiti, who will manage shipment and distribution… * HandsOn Miami, who connected us with new Partners… * A new Corporate Partner, which is funding this event with $4500… * Marlins Park, which is providing space to host this event…
It takes a village, and we are very grateful to all who are doing so much to make this happen.
We hope that this will be replicated, as others discover the pwer that we have in Miami to help the people of Haiti rebuild their communities and their nation.
