- Notes
- Harriet did not find the participants at the home where a demonstration exercise of removing banana stems was to be carried out.
Harriet practically taught them how to remove banana stems. She did this as she explained the whole process as the participants watched. She encouraged the participants to always ensure that all the banana stems are taken out for the stove to work effectively.
During the meeting one members called Kawala rose a concern that her stove cracked as soon as she started cooking on it. Then Harriet walked with her to her home to find out the problem. She asked her when she started cooking on it.
Harriet realized that this woman started cooking on her stove before it had stayed for one month. She told her that she could not wait because she struggles to look for firewood.
Harriet reminded the group to always wait for one month before they start cooking on their stoves so that they dry properly to avoid cracking.
She also encouraged Kawala to fill the cracks with soil, smear her stove and wait for it to dry again. The group was happy and thanked Harriet for being patient with them despite the mistakes they always make.
