Urban Farming
Urban farming is a key initiative by SUO to promote food security and sustainable living in informal settlements. We provide training and resources for individuals to cultivate vegetables and rear poultry, using small spaces effectively. Our demonstration gardens showcase innovative techniques such as vertical gardening and composting to maximize output in urban areas.
This initiative not only enhances nutrition but also empowers participants with income-generating opportunities. SUO supports communities in adopting these practices to foster self-reliance and improve their quality of life.
"Turning small spaces into big opportunities—empowering communities through sustainable urban farming."
By promoting urban farming, we reduce dependency on external food sources and contribute to environmental conservation through waste recycling and sustainable practices.
Benefits
- Improved nutrition through access to fresh, organic produce.
