Our efforts improve each step of the agricultural value chain. We introduce farmers to new methods and technology, improve export marketing techniques, and create strategies for ramping up food exports to lucrative overseas markets. As a result, we have helped export nearly 160,000 metric tons of fruits, nuts, and spices valued at more than $350 million to international markets, impacting more than one million farmers and families.

I am a trainer in the Roots of Peace kitchen garden program.

We trained 200 needy unemployed women to help them become self-sufficient.

Even though most of these women are illiterate, they have gardens and raise livestock.

They told us that this was the first time that anyone has held a workshop for them in this village.

They were so happy we did this.
We were so happy we could help.

Most of the women in this region suffer from anemia.

Women and children do not have enough food for proper nutrition.

Mothers die during childbirth because they do not have enough money to eat or buy medicine.

Though I am a health worker at the clinic, I recommend kitchen gardening to the women who come here.

They can plant seeds in their yards and improve their health by eating more vegetables. They can use the surplus to make jams and pickles.

This leads to not only better health but empowerment.
