Betikama Adventist College students are enjoying fresh cabbages and other vegetables from their school farm, thanks to a sustainable agricultural project initiated by the Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA) in the Solomon Islands.
The farm not only supplies nutritious food for the dining hall and provides hands-on training in agriculture, it also generates income by selling produce. The initiative is part of ADRA’s Wellbeing and Sustainable Economic Agricultural Solutions project and is supported by ADRA Australia.
With the income from the farm, the school has been able to purchase a new two-tonne truck, which will help to boost farm operations.
