Eight pumpkin patches
Go-urd big with this Christmas gift
As well as being able to thrive in climate-stricken areas, did you know that almost every part of the pumpkin is edible? From the flesh to the seeds – which this gift pays for eight packets of – and even the leafy greens growing from the stems! Bish, bash, squash, your gift is a true food superstar.
Gift in action
When Sokina* fled conflict, she was forced to leave everything behind making it difficult to feed her children. Thanks to this gift she was able to build a vegetable garden filled with pumpkins! Sokina can now feed her children with the produce, while selling any surplus, and using the money for her household. She told us, “By selling vegetables, I can buy medicine and clothes for my children.”
