Caritas farming project helps displaced farmers get a new start in South Sudan
Add to Cart Add to Lightbox DownloadUmberto Alphonso ties the leaves around a maturing pineapple in a church-supported community garden at Napkasiki, South Sudan. The project is a joint project of the Roman Catholic diocese of Tombura-Yambio and Caritas Austria, and helps families displaced by attacks from the Lord's Resistance Army to get restarted on land they once fled. They grow vegetables and fruit for their own consumption as well as to sell in nearby markets for cash, which they use to pay for medicines and school fees.
