                         An estimated number of 5.000 home gardens (each garden adds food security to
                         10 people) and 100 small farms (each farm gives food security to 50 people) are
                         needed to provide food security to a population of 100.000 people.


                         RVA has taken the first steps through the research made; with the creation of a
                         model garden and by working with farmers. Over the next 5 years, Richmond
                         Vale Academy will support:

                            •  200 families to start and develop a
                              home garden in North Leeward.

                            •  Many farmers with the startup
                              of 10 Farmers Markets.

                            •  5 small farms (of a size to
                              give food security to 50
                              people).
