Families grow better life
Vadavada CDP paid for several men and women to attend a vegetable gardening course last year, which specifically targeted food security* and backyard gardening in an urban settlement.
|
|
Gardening course graduates hold their certificates.
|
World Vision supplied seeds and tools to the people from Vadavada who attended the course, and built a nursery to raise seedlings for sale at subsidised prices.
Crops grown included capsicum, corn, eggplant, pak choy and cabbage.
The vegetables provide a welcome addition to the people’s diet and a small income from surplus sold in the markets.
*Food security – access by all people at all times to enough safe and nutritious food for an active and healthy life.
