families acquired the seeds that they would not have been able to
access otherwise.
[Peter Marks talking to the camera] There were more than 700 trainings on various topics
[image of women seated for training, and women cooking together] related to using the seed, the nutrition around the seed, cooking
nutritious meals with the seed, even selling the seed to earn income. More

[image of girl smiling] in nutrition among the gardeners and more than 80% of our partners responded that

really care about.
[Peter Marks talking to the camera] You know, it's not just handing someone a seed packet.
It's seeing a noticeable change in their quality of life, and we're
seeing that all over the world
