All around our community, waste is clearly mismanaged and we are constantly suffering from the consequences including but not limited to poor hygiene, blocked drainage all leading to diseases and infection of community members especially the children. In this project, learners focused on poor waste management in our community and thought about how they could flip this challenge to an opportunity by supporting a neighboring primary school that has some unutilized land yet it provides basic educational services to the underserved community within our area with a sustainable farm which will include a poultry unit built from mainly plastic bottles together with a vegetable garden that can offer teaching aids but also enhance the diet of the learners. This is to be implemented with the help of Vermiculture which involves the cultivation of earthworms with the purpose of turning organic waste into fertilizer. The earth worms provide continuous food food supply to the poultry and the residue from the Vermiculture System produces fertilizer to the vegetable garden. the Poultry units are to be reinforced with metal bars for structural stability. We plan to start with 50 chicken and then work towards scaling upwards.
