for KGA our work has focussed on Seed production, saving and distribution, beekeeping, ICT training, model urban gardens and building capacity within the FO.
We are establishing a number of demonstration gardens in the community creating the garden with the community’s help, and then the community takes over responsibility for the garden. Through popular plant health clinics, organic farming practices are promoted to manage pests and diseases.
KGA also advocates an organic policy.
