PGSIS Garden for the Poor and Lunch program

is a social project aimed at combating food insecurity in Haiti. Planting and growing healthy food to feed children, students, the poor, and refugees is a necessity in Haiti. Given the country's high risk of natural disasters and insecurity, the island's residents are facing the consequences of a food and health crisis. The project aims to combat malnutrition and increase agricultural production to feed thousands of children aged 3 to 8, adolescents, adults, the elderly, and schoolchildren. The PGSIS Garden for the Poor aims to cultivate more than 43 hectares of land In remote areas, areas far from cities, this is a way for us to ensure the success of these gardens regardless of the level of insecurity in certain cities across the country. This way, we can continue to produce despite the security crisis., with more to come in several regions of the country. The PGSIS garden hopes to expand to larger safer areas to continue agricultural production 

create jobs for some people forced to leave the cities and come to live in the mountains And also create a job for village residents and many young people who were living in the Dominican Republic and are forced to return to Haiti. And thanks to this garden the PGSIS & HCAS lunch program      https://www.pgsishaiti.org/post/lunch-program-1    will be a self-sustaining program. All the produce we harvest will be used to continue our lunch program throughout the plateau, This garden will also support other nonprofit organizations that have food programs, providing various types of products after each harvest we make as a donation. support primary schools through our feeding program. In order to ramp up production more quickly, within PGSIS Garden for the Poor & lunch program ,we have decided to use mechanical machinery, as well as our traditional system, which we call (kombit), and irrigation systems to allow us to continue producing even during the dry season, which is one of the biggest obstacles preventing national production from moving forward. Focusing on foods that take approximately 2 to 3.4 months to harvest is our greatest need to be able to address this serious food crisis in the country.
