## Resource

Six hundred Barbadian households are set to transform their food futures starting next month through a bold new community farming initiative. Part of the One Family Programme, this effort aims to boost national food security by equipping families with tools, seedlings, grow bags, and even chicken coops—empowering them to grow everything from herbs to sweet potatoes. Kickstarting with three tech-forward demonstration farms designed to inspire young people and spark innovation, the program will serve as a learning hub for all. It’s part of a larger vision by the Ministry of Agriculture to revitalize farming as a cornerstone of national development, backed by overseas scholarships in agribusiness and direct farmer consultations to tackle real challenges. This isn’t just about growing food—it’s about reconnecting Barbadians with the land and building a resilient, self-sufficient future.
