The School garden initiative aims at inculcating positive values regarding food, agriculture and environment in growing youth. It teaches sustainable agriculture and nutrition, which form the basis for a stable livelihood and informed consumption habits. The gardens are demonstration and seed multiplication centers for the community, contributing towards food security and biodiversity conservation. The current generation is managing and utilizing land on ‘lease’ from youth and the future generations. Investing in youth is investing in sustainability and posterity. The school garden initiative provides youth with hands-on experience in food production and other livelihood skills and they are encouraged to replicate the same at home. Harvest from the gardens supplement school feeding programs.
