REQUEST SUPPORT TO BUY AND OWN PERMACULTURE FIELD

From Jonas Chabroka Fadweck:

"This is an urgent request to help us buy and own the permaculture field which is a very worthy and sustainable solution to our ever present challenges. We encountered challenges of losing crops due to usual renting of the farms for permaculture practices which resulted in food insecurity. There's a good fertile land just put up for sale of three hectares with already lots of crops and fruits which is being sold at a very good price of 700,000 MWK, which is around $420 USD. If with your help we are able to buy and own, it will be much more effective for our permaculture practices with ongoing benefits to us and our community.

The three hectares is located between two rivers and is safe from any flooding. The most important thing is that it has also a water well in it which will be helpful in times of water scarcity. The land is enough for our permaculture practices and will help us earn a living and able to support other needy community groups. The land is offered for sale at $420 as previously mentioned plus affidation from local chief, around $50. I am requesting $500 at this time that will cover purchase of the land and any related costs and fees.

If we own the land, there shall be some work to be done to make it suitable for permaculture practices that could need some preparing materials and labor force based on owner-led action. If we are successful in this campaign, at a later time we plan to request additional support of funds for this purpose. Any support is highly appreciated."

Thank you very much!
