Introduction
This project is working to enable schools around the world to provide self-sustaining meals to students, through the implementation of vegetable gardens. We train the local community members that work at the school in crop management and in health and nutrition so they can become the local experts to ensure their students get a healthy meal that keeps the students' brain active and the catering costs down as the products are grown at the school.
Report
Many of our schools offer free school meals as it is often the only meal these children will get. In many countries the ground is too dry but by building Aquaponic Systems we are able to give schools a sustainable source of crops for their school kitchen. We have built 3 systems in 2021 all funded by donations!.
