STX Project

---

 In St Croix US Virgin Islands Project Green Foot (PGF) has collaborated with VI Aloha Organics Farm. The USVI is the first of many diverse locations PGF will work to conserve organic seed-bearing plant species. 

 PGF has grown 50 papaya trees from clearing an area 40x-50xsqft. We have documented this progress on our Instagram account and have shown some photos below. This process took one full year from seedling to fruit bearing trees. Now with the fruits fully mature we have harvested the fruits and replanted the seeds back into the soil.

Working with VI Aloha Organics Farm we have seen how the progression of fruit trees will prosper. The Virgin Islands depends on water wells and cisterns; the island does not have rivers that currently run. During hurricane season when multiple storms pass the island, rain accumulates in guts. In turn, allowing small streams to flow during a period of time.
