Seed Conservation

This woman is participating in a procession organised by FYF partner Sabla to raise awareness around the conservation of seeds.

The local farming practices of selecting, saving and replanting local seeds over generations has led to the development of crops that are adapted to local conditions.

By supporting reforestation and the establishment of village conservation areas, and providing training in the multiplication of traditional seed varieties, Find Your Feet helps communities to conserve the natural resource base on which their livelihoods depend.
