Mount Elgon Farmer-Led Agroforestry

Uganda

Our project employs a unique agroforestry approach that benefits local farmers and the environment. Monoculture and logging have degraded the land and left farmers reliant on a single source of income. So far, over 700 farmers are using the Forest Garden approach to rebuild food systems, improve livelihoods, and restore the environment. CO2 per species is rounded to 50kg, as this project is twinned with VCS credits.

Sustainable agriculture

Circular agribusinesses can offer us fantastic environmental solutions but also reduce countries’ dependency on imports and create job opportunities. Farmers can help us greatly in creating a system of services and products that can minimise dependency on patented and chemical inputs. Building stronger circular and local sustainable food systems will also be essential in maintaining valuable natural minerals, nutrients, and resources in the loop.
