Jirnani Bedrijo displays worms she uses in her compost pile at her home in Los Arcos, Philippines. "Before we didn't have much knowledge or skill, but after Heifer's trainings we have more knowledge of animal management and feed formulation," said Nakue. The Bedrijo's received seven goats, vegetable seeds, fruit trees, farm tool and African night crawlers from Heifer International.
