YEREVAN. - Through the project of "ONEArmenia" designed to raise
money for bordering houses in Berkaber, located in the Tavush Region
of Armenia, a total of $8,095 was raised with $595 above the goal,
director of the organization "ONEArmenia" David Bequette told Armenian
News - NEWS.am.
"We got more than the amount of money we expected, and the
representatives of "Sahman" NGO have already been in Berkaber to start
construction of the next stage of greenhouses", he noted, adding that
they are actually going to start another sustainability project there.
David Bequette hopes to start construction on October 10 and finish
the greenhouses before the winter.
He noted that the representatives of "Sahman" NGO visited the two
previous greenhouses and they both have become success stories:
the first one is already selling its harvest in the local market,
while the second owner has started building his own greenhouse.
On August 7, "ONEArmenia" launched its fourth campaign to help build
sustainable greenhouses for over 500 residents in the border village
of Berkaber, located in the Tavush Region in northeastern Armenia. The
project includes the building of greenhouses, the trainings, the seeds,
as well as budget training on how to keep and maintain greenhouses.
For the past 20 years, the farmers in Berkaber have not been able to
farm because their land, located on the other side of the village's
reservoir, is under the occupation of Azerbaijani forces.
