The Soldier-Farmer core to Camp TIME in the village

September 19, 2022 by Crystal Gonzales

Introduction, R&D, propagation of Beladi (TBK) tree in the US

The Beladi is the DNA of the trees of Bechealeh

Camp TIME is our future, our children:

Those who immigrated

and those who stayed

They helped introduce the Beladi (TBK) olive tree

and its propagation in the US

They helped Lebanon win 4 silver medals

in the LA international olive oil competition

with the Beladi of the Willani olive grove

they are ready to distribute it in the US

They just produced these first

Bag in Boxes of olive oil

made with Beladi

as a model for their export

Lebanese farmer to US farmer

Take back & give back to the rural community in the Mother country

Lebanese growers can

survive their current crisis

with our 17-year ongoing plan

to revive the agriculture

in the mountains of Lebanon,

the planting of the land

with Lebanese olive trees,

the picking of its olives,

the production of olive oil

and its sale to the US

TIME olive oil BiB made with Beladi direct (no in-between) from Leb farmer to US farmer

The olive tree yields 2 Bag-in-Boxes made with Beladi

A camp TIME team of 4 is able to care for

a grove of 1,000 olive trees 4 months a year

in the spring (Mar & Apr) and in the fall (Oct & Nov)

and produce 2,000 Bag-in-Boxes

for sale from Lebanese farmer to US farmer

Half of the sales go directly to the team of four ($16,000);

the other half to the olive grove owner ($10,000) and to the olive press ($5,000)

The Soldier-Farmer core of camp TIME getting half of the sale

Nayla Moawad had a wish:

For the men in the villages to stay with their families

and make a living from the olive tree

Her wish has become our mission

and we decided to support the soldiers who are underpaid ($50/mth)

and train them to care for the olive groves in their village

and make a decent living from it

The Soldier-Farmer could become the core of the camp TIME team

which is modeled after military service & discipline

Agricultural growth & autonomy; Village after Village

Team after team, Grove after Grove, Village after Village,

the Soldier-Farmer & his Family will make

the Rural Community strong and independent

thru its Agriculture, Economy, Mediterranean identity and olive trees

If Lebanon would produce 25% of its olive oil potential and could sell it to the US for 100MM,
13,000 Soldier-Farmers will be employed 4 months/year and generate 52MM for their families,
32MM for the land owners who will have their groves cared for, and 16MM for the olive presses
