Become a First Planter

A "First Planter" is a friend of The Growing Connection who makes a tax-deductible contribution to the project of $500 or more. Contributions can be made through the United States Committee for FAO or the American Horticultural Society, see addresses below. Your contribution will be used for:

  • Project Site Development in Ghana and the USA - installations at schools, community gardens and project research/education centers.
  • Local Adaptability Trials, to ensure sustainability in rural Africa.
  • Teachers' Training and Exchanges, for lesson development and to facilitate communications in America and Ghana.
  • Establish two-way connectivity for "first-wave" villages in Ghana, using rural radio stations and wireless telephony.
