Patrick Simwiinga left our Youth Service Program with a certificate, a small grant, and a plan to raise chickens.
Last week he stood inside the poultry house that plan turned into, showing it to the Acting Permanent Secretary of Zambia’s Ministry of Small and Medium Enterprise Development.
Mr. Lemmy Kafwamfwa came to Mphande with his team to see the work firsthand, starting at Chilimbamume, where the YSP youth and the farmers alongside them are putting up poultry housing and growing crops on community land. Then Patrick’s farm. Then the length of the Roneet Carmell Training Farm, where the different pieces of the project sit side by side.
Twenty-six young people graduated from the program last summer, and most are now running businesses in the village they grew up in. Thirty-two more have begun the same two years.
Tevel extends its sincere thanks to Mr. Kafwamfwa and to the Ministry of Small and Medium Enterprise Development for making the journey to Mphande, and for the interest shown in the young entrepreneurs building their livelihoods here. Our work in Zambia rests on close partnership with government at both national and local level, and we look forward to continuing it.

Since arriving on Tevels farm, volunteers have led classes on financial literacy, English, and sexual health in the village. Out in the fields, they worked alongside YSP and local farmers, clearing cabbage beds, staking new rows of tomatoes, planting, and building a vegetable garden from the ground up. On the farm itself, they sat down as students, picking up smart agricultural practices from the farmers who’ve worked this land for years.

This is what volunteering with Tevel looks like. Subscribe to our newsletter to get updates on our programs!

The greenhouse at the Roneet Carmell Training Farm ran at full capacity through 2025, supplying seedlings to approximately 250 farmers and to the project’s own production unit.
It functions as a working classroom. The farm is the hub of Youth Service Program learning, and its demonstration plots produced a wide range of crops last year, several of them used directly for hands-on training.
Ground-nursery management training will give farmers the ability to produce their own seedlings, reducing dependence on external support as Tevel prepares for a responsible exit from Mphande.

One week ago, this year’s service learning volunteers landed in Zambia. Since then it’s been days straight in the fields with our YSP and Tevel agronomists. From clearing last season’s broccoli to shelling peanuts, working the tomato rows, and learning to build a keyhole garden from scratch.
Five weeks still to go. Follow along to see what they do next!

Zambia’s smallholder farmers produce 80% of the country’s food. 78% of them live in extreme or moderate poverty.
Tevel is working with farming communities in Zambia to change that, through youth leadership, climate-smart agriculture, and community-owned financial institutions.

Tevel b’Tzedek is proud to greet our first service learning volunteer cohort: six Israelis, three Americans, a Canadian, and our madricha from the USA, Shira Bar Chaim. Our program began with a wonderful welcoming session at the home of Israeli Ambassador to Zambia, Ofra Farhi. Yesterday, after three days in Lusaka, including a Shabbat celebration at Zambia Chabad, the group arrived in the village. This morning we were greeted with song by our Youth Service Program along with some of our loyal farmhands. We are so happy to be restarting programs for Israelis and Diaspora Jews to expose them to life in rural farming villages, to our method for transforming the village economy, lifting thousands out of poverty and food insecurity, and to taste the good that well thought out, boots-on-the-ground international work can do.

–Micha Odenheimer, Tevel Founding Director

Diversifying crops, strengthening incomes, growing futures.
Tevel's agronomists are working with farmers in the Mphande villages to bring sunflowers into the rainy season as a new pilot this year, alongside maize and beans. Fifteen farmers received input loans to grow the new crop this season, with a goal of reaching 250 farmers within two years. One women's group is already preparing equipment to press sunflower oil from the harvest, turning a new crop into a new source of income for their households.
With your support, farmers in Mphande are able to test, adopt, and scale the crops that will carry their families through the year. Sign up for our newsletter to follow the season as it unfolds.

Tevel’s greenhouse supplied healthy seedlings to approximately 250 farmers in 2025, improving crop quality and supporting more productive harvests from the earliest stage of the growing cycle.

Early-stage support like this helps stabilize production and increases consistency across the season.

Soil preparation is where Tevel's agronomists begin. Get the foundation right, and the season ahead has something to build on.
The drip irrigation running through this plot is part of the infrastructure Tevel has developed across Mphande's communal farming land, delivering water directly to the root, available through the dry season, and shared across the families cultivating here together.
Tevel's team lives in Mphande. They're in these fields regularly, working alongside the farmers they train. That presence is part of how the model works.

In Mphande, Zambia, Tevel b’Tzedek works with farming communities on a single long-term premise: that a village economy built on local knowledge, shared infrastructure, and community-owned institutions will outlast any external program that tries to substitute for those things.
Tevel trains young people from the village as farmers and community leaders, who then pass that knowledge on to hundreds of smallholder families. Tevel connects those families to irrigation, markets, and savings clubs that keep the model running independently.
Over 5 to 7 years, the goal is a community that owns and operates everything — and a model ready to grow across Zambia.
