  PROJECT WIN IS GRASSROOTS PARTNERSHIPS FOR THAILAND Project WIN is named after our founder, Ajarn Thongin Nuntarat, M.A. His Thai nickname "Vin" is pronounced "Win." We're an informal coalition of volunteers involved in a wide array of projects, usually at the request and invitation of local Thai and Hilltribe people.   Before Covid, Vin organized large projects that included installing fishponds, vegetable gardens, poultry operations, mushroom "hotels," according to village needs.  He led a big team of argicultural university students who worked alongside villagers for several days to set up the projects and provide training.  There was open a big party at the end, with the volunteers providing music and comedy performances directed at the kid. Now, the universities have cracked down and students are no longer available, so we've switched to projects on a different scale.  In 2022, the project sponsored various agricultural initiatives in villag...

  YEAR END SUMMARY: 2021 Page back through these blogsite posts to pre-Covid times. You'll find everything from flood relief to building cafeterias and school libraries to big months-long installations of Project Protein involving entire villages.

As a small grassroots charity, they depended on contributions from a network of friends.  The Project also planned a two-day village celebration for Thai Children's Day, inc...

THE MAGIC IN MUSHROOMS FOR KHUN SAB

This is inside one of the mushroom barns at the big farm. The lady is harvesting. We drove to the factory to see the magic. There, expert cultivators stir a special sterilized compost, a different recipe for each type of mushroom. They carefully pour the mixture into strong plastic bags, then inoculate it with spores and seal the bag tightly.  All the bags are dated and you can order ones that will begin to produce when you want them to. If you'd like to know more about mushroom farming, here's a great short film on mushroom growing in Thailand. It shows how people could change from poaching to farming. Just click on the title:    Five Minute Film on Sustainable Mushroom Farming . This village is high in the mountains and very beautiful. At the factory we bought 400 bags for about 25 cents each. We loaded them into on old pickup truck, along with about six volunteers and drove a couple of hours to the mountain village.  It's a little hard to get to...
