Eighteen months ago BBC Radio Lancashire listeners helped save the Aids Orphans of Mulanje from starvation They contributed 17,000 kilo bags of rice which were sent off to Malawi by container ship - the children are still eating some of it today… Now FOMO, the Preston based charity which looks after the 3,600 Aids orphans of Mulanje, would like the children to learn how to be self sufficient and is making an Appeal for packets of vegetable seeds. The children can grow many of the vegetables which we grow here in Lancashire - but they can grow them much quicker. So they are asking for packets of the following - - Peppers
- Broad beans
- Broccoli
- Calabrese
- Cabbage
- Kale
- Chard
- Chicory
- Climbing french beans
- Courgette
- Cucumber
- Leeks
- Lettuce
- Marrow
- Melon
- Pea
- Pumpkin
- Squash
- Radish seeds
Please next time you are in a Garden Centre or supermarket, just pick up a packet of seeds and post or bring it to us at BBC Radio Lancashire or take it direct to Mary Woodworth who founded FOMO.
She will be on the road with BBC Radio Lancashire during Easter Week and she would love to meet you and tell you personally about the Malawi Orphans and how well they are doing… She will be with the BBC Radio Lancashire team from 10am till 3pm
On Tuesday April 10th at Ashton Hall Garden Centre, Lancaster
On Wednesday April 11th at Shackletons Garden Centre, Chatburn
On Thursday April 12th at Barton Grange Garden Centre, Barton and
On Friday April 13th at Warbreck Graden Centre at Lathom near Ormskirk. Thank you so much for helping! |
