The Proof is in the Pot (May 16, 2015)

Let us go back to Trust and Modester and their chicken venture. We were just back in Zim to check on all our projects there and went back by to see Trust and Modester. They started with 102 chickens,
did not lose one to accident or illness. They dress the chickens and put them in a freezer to sell so they never have to worry about having to feed chickens beyond their due date and lose profit on feeding them. They sold all 102 of their chickens!  Two of them Modester sold to Trust. I ask her why she would charge her husband for 2 chickens. She said, it is a business and we must account for every chicken!!!  Trust had actually bought the chickens to have a celebration brie (cook out) with us. They shared the wonderful news that with their first batch all sold, they were able to pay all their daughter's school tuition, buy a small freezer for their chicken business, buy 125 chickens and all the feed and medicine for their next go- around. So they have increased their business by
25%. Trust and Modester both have experience in raising chickens from agricultural school and believe in slowly increasing their business. It was thrilling to celebrate their success.
