Sustainable Farming for Community Development
🌿ABOUT ECO-AGRICULTURE
Eco-Agriculture partners strive for a community where rural livelihoods, nature, and food security are equally valued, and where the communities have a larger role in managing the natural resources they rely on. We work with community groups and farmers to manage farmland in ways that benefit biodiversity as well as food production.
We help them to learn about crops that will nurture the soil and provide nutritional benefits, and also about land-clearing methods that leave trees and bushes in place as wildlife habitat.

Additional Support: Help with applying for grants, online fund-raises & microfinance education.
🐓LIVESTOCK DEVELOPMENT
Most community members dwell on poultry, goat and cattle keeping as one way of improving their lives through getting food and a little income for their upkeep and educating their children. Poultry farming is an enterprise that can be done with low requirements on time and land.
Organic Poultry Units
The foundation is developing several organic poultry units on farms belonging to foundation members in order to increase their standards of living.
Goat Farming
Goat keeping provides sustainable income and food security for community families while requiring minimal land and resources.
Cattle Development
Cattle farming provides milk, meat, and income opportunities for larger community families with appropriate land resources.
🐟SUSTAINABLE FISHERIES
Most of our youths depend on fishing activities as their major means of getting bread on the table and improving their way of life. They should be supported and strengthened financially to build them economically for self-reliance and sustainability by giving them the required gears to support their activities.
Economic empowerment of the community is one of the Foundation's primary functions. A project is currently underway to establish floating fish cages in Lake Victoria for sustainable aquaculture. This project helps to create employment opportunities, promote sustainable farming in the region and also boost the incomes of community members.
We are also planning to support registered groups of fishermen, by giving them revolving funds through micro-finance initiatives allowing them to buy needed fishing gear.
