A highlight …

… of the agricultural year is always the “food festival”. Here in Merangding, many new certificates were again distributed for the successful completion of the PGS organic vegetable growing training programme. A total of 180 of the approximately 240 women from the 4 villages are now certified. This should not only increase food security, but also prevent the use of non-biodegradable fertilisers and pesticides.

We would like to thank the Schoeck Family Foundation for their financial support.

.. Carola Ggosch and Lena Kremser were already a little exhausted during the long walk to the Food Festival. Kusang Tamang made every effort to motivate them 🙂
.. the guests of honour were able to fortify themselves with local delicacies and give ratings
.. every little vegetable stall was visited and admired
.. certificates were distributed to around 100 women
.. there was a “plate chain” for the food distribution 🙂
