Our project goal is to establish an ecological village garden in Bumari, The Gambia that promotes community spirit and increases local food security and food sovereignty. The garden aims to use sustainable farming methods and ecological principles to create a healthy food source for the villagers. The irrigation system is set up with a solar-powered deep well. In addition, the garden will be included in our organic farming learning community, where village communities can learn agricultural skills and learn about sustainable practices. The learning community already consists of 5 village communities and has an ecological “learning farm” in the region that serves as a training and meeting place.
