The students at Hope International School in Jakarta, Indonesia, are learning all about growing and using moringa trees thanks to our dear friend, Lowell Lux. Strong Harvest provided seeds and information so that these kids could learn about this fantastic tree!
Here’s the latest report from Lowell:
Hello, Rick. Some photos from last Friday of the kids re-potting and pruning the little trees. They are truly excited about this project and will be answering some questions about it on their Term 3 Exam this Thursday.
Blessings to you and Jeri.

Rev. Tigor, We agree that kids can learn organic farming and especially, how to grow the moringa tree. If children learn when they are young, they will continue to use it when they become adults and will teach their own children! We hope that you are able to visit the school, please let us know if you do.
Thanks, Jeri Kemmer
What is this tree called in Indonesian language? Is it something like Fattay?
Thanks, Jameela
Hi Jameela,
We have heard that Moringa is called “Kelor” in Indonesia. What is your interest in or experience with moringa?
