The Foundation for Community Development (FDC) provided funding to help members of the Graça Machel Association grow crops in the Mapai district of Gaza province, Mozambique.
The association members now produce tomatoes and onions on a one-hectare plot. These crops provide food for the members to eat, help the association remain sustainable, and improve nutrition for their families. The community also manages two hectares of maize, 0.25 hectares of cassava, and 0.25 hectares of orange-fleshed sweet potato vines.
The FDC states these efforts aim to strengthen agricultural production and improve the living conditions of rural families.
