Empower 175 students for food security in Kenya

The schools polytechnics have had a good but busy 3^rd term.  The term was very short and the agribusiness club members had to work extra hard to balance their course work and the project activities.  They did not have much to do on the gardens as most of them have harvested their crops before breaking for August holiday while others harvested between August and September.  They were all excited to have their own products from their school gardens project which motivated them a lot and most of them have established kitchen gardens in their homes.  They are also training others on how to establish kitchen gardens as well as school gardens in secondary and primary schools.  We appreciate their efforts and we keep encouraging them and supporting them where possible.  There were plans to conduct trainings on value addition and marketing as earlier reported, but due to tight schools’ program and short term, we did not manage but we hope to do so in next term when we will also be integrating new club members.  Most of them will be closing school next week for their long December holiday.  As usual they have shared duties and responsibilities for their projects during the long December holiday.  We take this opportunity for the support given to our youths and we are happy when we see them progressing and making efforts to achieve their goals.
