Potatoes
A spud-tacular gift
Know someone who loves nothing more than a good spud? Then this gift is a mash made in heaven. With more nutrients than you can shake a chip at, this incredibly filling and versatile vegetable is a meal in itself. A nutritious addition to any growing garden, potatoes can be harvested twice a year – meaning the family can enjoy a healthy meal, and make a living by selling surplus crops.
Each farming gift comes with the necessary training and tools to help families make the most of your gift.

Merema has a small plot of land where she grows potatoes in her kitchen garden. This absolute staple ensures her family always have a filling meal to prepare and helps enrich their diet. One day, Merema hopes to build a new home and open a shop.
