Come and be part of it. Bring your friends. Bring your family. Bring your energy.

When there are too many obstacles on the road, sometimes the best course of action is to back out !
Please read Changing Stars Malawi - Educational Charity 's full statement on their page.

Our hope is also that the works done in the ground for these few weeks have demonstrated that change IS possible and accessible to all with a hoe and compost 😊

We're grateful for the opportunity Changing Stars Malawi gave us with the school project, and will look forward to another chance of making the world better together ✨️

The journey has begun to turn this bare and unused floodplain into lush school grounds...

At the end of March, we started working on site.
Digging, shaping, opening the ground, planting, mulching...
And slowly, the plants start to colonize the beds, slowly taking their place,
sending their roots to the water, breaking that hard soil !

Here the landscaping works aren't some “decoration around the buildings”, but the necessary base for construction.
It's the swales, berms, planted areas and pathways that draw the building outlines and will protect them from being flooded, and will ensure that the school will not only be accessible, but also is an oasis all year round 😊 🌿

This is at its best !

Establishing a school on bare, neglected and floodable grounds will require some stamina !
But there's nothing like growing leafy plants to lift up the spirits at the start of a project 🌟💚☘️

Construction season 2026 is open !

For Mud & Leaf, it starts with a Home Office and Gym Under the Trees in a private residence in Blantyre... A beautiful spot, where we would love to have a desk ourselves 😅

Can this bare, unused floodplain be turned into a Primary School with lush, shaded grounds?

Challenge accepted!

Done right, this can have such a profound impact on a community !

Flooded during rain season, dry and hard soil the rest of the time, the situation on this land is getting worse year by year, so it's time to reclaim it, and start putting nature-based solutions in place so trees and plants can grow again.

Once these water management systems are put in place, keeping the buildings dry and sound will not require fancy procedures, but simple principles that anyone with their own means can apply.

What better way to show to the community that together, little by little, they can change it for the better !

Thank you Changing Stars Malawi for your trust with this meaningful project !

And while the 2024 designs are being implemented/ almost finished (yes, building takes a little time), new exciting projects are coming to the worktable !

Here is the first sneak peek of a Home office & Gym in a beautiful forested residence in Blantyre...
With large glazed windows opening to the surrounding trees !

News from the Gym & Cafe, the main building works are now almost done... here comes the finishings phase !
