AYUDH grows organic food for good in Netherlands

This time AYUDH helped planting fruit trees and bushes in the fruit- and vegetable garden ‘Food for Good’. In this garden members of the community and people from vulnerable sections of society work together to grow vegetables and herbs. Part of the harvest goes to the people who help in the garden, the other part to the food bank. This way they provide the neighbourhood with healthy organic food.
