Farming
Our New Farm Project
One of our significant expenses in supporting the village is funding daily meals for over 500 students, including those at our Vocational College and the local village schools. As you can imagine, providing these lunches is a considerable cost, but it’s essential to the well-being of our students.
To help offset this expense, one of our Trustees, with expertise in agriculture, has launched a large-scale Farm Project on the College grounds. The project involves cultivating a substantial plot of land, focusing on enriching the soil with only natural fertilizers and ingredients. Our goal is to produce enough food to supply all the students in both the schools and College, while also offering affordable vegetables to the adults in the village.
Though we only started the project this year, the village is already seeing the benefits, with fresh, locally grown produce helping to support the community’s nutritional needs
