Agrihouse Foundation, with strategic support from AGRA and the Mastercard Foundation under the Youth Entrepreneurship for the Future of Food and Agriculture (YEFFA) programme, is expanding its transformative Boost to Bloom project to new communities in North East Region.
This new phase will benefit youth and women in Tamboku Dagbiribogri and surrounding areas, offering practical, hands-on training in chili pepper cultivation and agribusiness development.
Building on the success in the Savannah Region, where over 1,000 participants were trained, the project now aims to empower even more rural communities through agriculture.
Each participating community will host a three-day bootcamp, of comprehensive training. Sessions will cover the entire chili pepper value chain, including nursery management, pest control, post-harvest handling, and value addition.
“We are not just training farmers; we are building entrepreneurs who can feed, lead, and transform their communities,”
Alberta Nana Akyaa Akosa, Executive Director, Agrihouse Foundation
Participants will also receive startup input packs, certificates, and ongoing technical support to ensure sustained impact.
The initiative aligns with Ghana’s Feed Ghana strategy and contributes to Agrihouse Foundation’s broader mission to empower 20,000 youth, women, and persons with disabilities by 2028.
Agrihouse Foundation urges community leaders, youth, and stakeholders to support and join the project as it builds Ghana’s next generation of agribusiness leaders.
