Value of Food Produced
“We started consuming the chemical-free foods that we planted. I specifically started noticing changes in my skin, whereby the white dry spots had disappeared and my stomach stopped grumbling. I started asking others – my dad’s ulcers had subsided and my neighbours’ kids were not suffering from malaria as frequently.
“My passion for growing health and improving the soil in simple ways increased from the changes I was seeing.”
– Melvin Isanda
