Farm Project
In 1999, a farmer donated 100 hectares (247 acres) of land to St. Albert’s. Elizabeth’s father had been a farmer, and she knew about crops, seeds, and fertilizers, so she embarked on the farm project. Crops include greens, peanuts, mealie meal, carrots, beans, and tomatoes. The project provides food for hospital patients and families. Surplus is sold to pay the farm workers. Dr. Julia also maintains a large herb garden here. She uses the plants for herbal medicines and seasonings
