ORGANIC KITCHEN GARDENS

Our Kitchen Garden Initiative promotes organic, home-grown nutrition by helping families, especially in rural areas, cultivate small gardens using local resources. These gardens not only improve dietary diversity and reduce dependence on external food sources but also serve as powerful tools for nutrition education, especially in the fight against anaemia.
