Agronomy Internships
Etienne collaborates with American University in Les Cayes, developing and teaching agronomy and veterinary courses. Each year he trains a group of interns, including taking them into the field to work on a variety of projects including running veterinary clinics that treat thousands of farm animals, distributing livestock and knowledge about their care, and helping with the labor of erosion mitigation and preparing fields for crops. Haiti ap Grandi contributes funds for transporting, feeding, and housing these volunteer interns while they are deployed. Etienne keeps dozens of interns learning and busy working the fields for crop programs, distributing donated livestock, and assisting with community projects.
