Kitchen Garden starter kit
Kitchen Garden starter kit
Donate fencing and seeds to a rural poor family to set up their very own kitchen garden!
The villages we work in are situated miles away from shops and markets, which makes buying vegetables a challenge. When poor families do buy vegetables, the food they buy often contains harmful pesticides.
Kitchen gardens provide families with a sense of purpose, and most importantly, a steady supply of nutricious food.
Due to the success of SOTE kitchen gardens, the waiting list for families is growing quite significantly. Since Covid, families have come to appreciate the value in growing their own food, and we have many families eager to start growing food outside their homes.
This gift will pay for fencing mesh (to keep out goats!), poles, seeds, and soil to a rural poor family setting up a kitchen garden outside their home. Families will be taught how to use waste water and organic cultivation by our partners on the ground, and will be supported by trained village volunteers throughout the process.
