The Deputy Minister of Food and Agriculture, Hon. Yaw Frimpong Addo has described Agrihouse Foundation’s “1Household 1Garden” Project as an impressive and innovative idea.

He said, as part of Governments committment to improve the country
‘s agricultural sector, government is continuously building private-public partnerships focused on providing support and scaling up project like the 1Household 1Garden.

“the ‘1Household,1Garden’ project is in alignment with the government’s planting for Food and Jobs(PFJ) project as it sought to create opportunities to improve the livelihood of women and children,” he said.

The Minister made these known at the press launch of 1H1G Project held in Bamvim, at the Agrihouse Agrivillage Training and Demonstration Center, in the Northern Region.

He further noted that the ministry of Food and Agriculture (MoFA) was working with other relevant bodies to reduce the cost of farming in Ghana to encourage more people, especially the youth to go into farming.

1Household 1Gardrn aims at supporting 2000 households and 10 schools, through backyard gardening in 17 districts, in the Northern, North East, Upper Western and Eastern Regions.

Some of the beneficiary districts include Tempane District, Daffiama Bussie Issa, Nadowli, Sissala East, Sissala West, Wa East, East Mamprusi, Mamprugu Moagduri, Mion, Sagnarigu, Nanton, Gushegu, Karaga, Yendi Municipal, Bawku Municipal, Bawku West and Garu in the Upper East Region.

In a brief presentation at the launch, Executive Director of the Agrihouse Foundation, Alberta Nana Akyaa Akosa said, each of the 2000 household beneficiaries would be trained and further equipped with starter packs, which include trays of vegetable seedlings, seeds, gardening tools, organic fertilizers and pesticides.

She also said the initiative was expected to yield a wide variety of fresh vegetables to increase the quantity and quality of nutrients available to the beneficiary families.

Madam Alberta further said the project was aimed to drive advocacy of home gardening, being an important supplemental source contributing to food security.

“The 1household, 1 garden initiative, is an intentional interventional project, which aims to trigger and revive a national interest in home gardening, that will ultimately contribute to household food security by providing direct access to food that can be harvested, prepared and fed to family members daily,” she said.

She expressed gratitude to the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and the Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa’s (AGRA) Ghana Inclusive Agriculture Transformation (GIAT) program for providing funding and support for the delivery of the project.
