The Project

The Agri Learn and Talks project focuses on donating suitable crop seedlings for agricultural purposes to farmers. It further offers agricultural education and training programs in Kenya’s rural areas and empower various communities (youths, women and small-scale farmers) in planting not only trees but edible fruits to increase tree cover mitigating climate change effects.Through funding, Agri Learn and Talks purchases appropriate fertilizers and pesticides for the donated crop seedlings. The project commits to increase small-scale farmers produce and protect yields for consumption and economic purposes empowering targeted farmers. In Kenya, small scale farmers from underserved communities lose their farm produce to pest infestation, which continues to affect millions not only in the country but also in other agriculture-focused nations in the continent.
