SOLVES HUNGER WHILE REGENERATING THE EARTH

By guiding farmers away from synthetic fertilizers and monocultures, ARK introduces communities to all the benefits of regenerative farming. Soil that’s naturally healthy costs less to maintain, yields abundant pesticide-free produce, and ensures that food sources are climate-resilient!

ELIMINATES HUNGER & IMPROVES OVERALL WELLNESS

Backyard gardens secure food for families, enhancing food security and nutrition. They promote independence, and breaks the cycle of hunger, malnutrition, debt, and poverty.

FROM BACKYARD
TO MARKET

Backyard gardens sprout all kinds of opportunities for farmers and fisherfolk – from starting community markets and small businesses, to supplying nutritious school lunches!
