Grow plants. Grow possibilities.
Medicinal agroforestry
This proposed project combines trees, plants used in medicines and crops for animal feed. Local women and farmers could learn to grow, prepare and sell these plants, creating new ways to earn a living.
WHAT WE’RE EXPLORING
Three things to work on.
- 01
Choose what to grow
Find plants and trees suited to the soil, water and local weather.
- 02
Learn and grow together
Help women’s groups and farmers learn about planting, care and harvesting.
- 03
Find buyers
Explore ways to prepare and sell the crops so families can earn.
A note on this project’s stage
This is a proposed five-year project. Land, water, suitable crops, funding and buyers still need to be checked before the plan can begin. No planting or income outcomes are claimed.
