There was a table set up for Buen Pastor. Madre Patti and Madre Elvira were there with volunteer Maggie. In the photo above, Maggie is modeling one of the aprons that the madres were selling. 19 year old Maggie came to Buen Pastor last year and fell in love with the girls, as she did with her. When she left, she promised to come back, and she has. She'll be volunteering until May, diligently helping the girls every afternoon for hours with their homework and letting them braid her hair. She's even begun fundraising for Buen Pastor.
On February 19th and 20th over 35 participants sold homemade and organic products, and promoted conservation organizations in Guanajuato's Tianguis Ecológico (Ecological Fair) in Guanajuato. Some of the products sold included: medicinal plants, sweets, solar water heaters, honey, cheeses, salsas, handmade soap, whole wheat bread, chocolate, organic coffee, and ecology-friendly diapers!
