Page 124 - Climate Compliance

In 2017, the CCC will start working
124 with the first 20 families.

These home gardens and small farms will provide families with healthy food that
can add to their wellbeing and can generate a small income through the sale of

surplus goods at the local Farmers Market. The family or school gardens will
receive support in the form of training, labour and material assistance. A hands
on approach will be used as family members, teachers, program participants
and volunteers will work closely together throughout the project. To facilitate
the replicability of the project, a home garden manual will be made and it will
cover the necessary basic information; from creation to maintaining and further
development of a garden. Furthermore, families and schools will take part in
educational lessons, as this will enable them to further develop their agricultural
production.

The gardens and small farms, together
with onsite workshops and manuals,

will provide a foundation for families
and schools to become food secure.
