We visited Viwandani Comprehensive Community Organization (@vicco_ke) today and were truly inspired by their strong community footprint. 🌱 They run a feeding program for children in informal settlements and also support schools and households with organic kitchen gardens.

Adopt agroecology—diverse, chemical-free farming that builds soil health, cuts pollution, and yields nutritious harvests. Community gardens unite us all. Let's eat for tomorrow! @ifjad_ @Zero_Hunger_Ke #HealthyPlanet #FoodRevolution
