A pathway to sustainable food systems
....Every year, we strive to ensure at least one new school in Northern Kenya get a vegetable garden to ensure continuous supply of fresh and nutritious vegetables throughout the semester. That's our food security story.

These systems must be economically viable, socially inclusive, and environmentally sound to address the interconnected challenges of hunger, poverty, and climate change.
