WOMEN OF THE LAND
Women farmers are central to food security, household resilience, and the future of regenerative agriculture in Haiti.
WHY WOMEN FARMERS MATTER
Women farmers sustain food systems, household resilience, and the transfer of agricultural knowledge. Supporting their leadership strengthens families and the wider landscape.
Grown in Haiti begins by listening to the priorities women name for themselves, then builds practical support around those goals.
LISTENING BEFORE PRESCRIBING
This work begins with the priorities women farmers name for themselves: planting materials, healthier soils, water security, practical training, market opportunities, and freedom to make long-term decisions about land and livelihoods.
