Film and InteractiveWe pilot agricultural businesses and garden initiatives in refugee communities to restore cultural identity, dignity and purpose. Our long-term vision is to expose every refugee camp in the world to garden competitions, communal gardens, and self-sustaining, value-creating ventures run by and for refugees, providing true economic value to entrepreneurial ideas. Gardening is a powerful therapeutic tool, addressing issues of isolation and mental health, producing beauty, belonging, food security, and promising economic stimulation. Through the provision of seeds and plants, we empower social and economic change.
In 2018 we will sponsor a garden at Chelsea Flower Show to bring our refugee work to a new audience.
