The Agriculture Project teaches children and their families how to grow a variety of vegetables so they can save money while having a more healthy diet. At the same time it feeds disadvantaged children by providing vegetables for the Soup Kitchen.
- The vegetable garden uses compost made from local organic waste.
- Students receive practical lessons in how to grow vegetables, at the same time helping with planting and harvesting.
- Produce is used in the Soup Kitchen, with any surplus given to staff, students or the community.
- Students are sometimes given nursery seedlings or excess vegetables to take home.
US$300 is the cost of running our agricultural program each month. Can you help with this cost?
