Dr. Garvi will share the story of Eden Foundation in Niger, an NGO founded by a Scandinavian couple in 1986 to research species that could revegetate the land and provide good, nourishing food without resorting to neither irrigation nor any other means of artificial support such as pesticides and fertilizers. Eden Farming is a thriving example of sustainable agriculture that has led to the flourishing of rural communities in a region the size of Taiwan.
