There are 250,000 known plant species in the world, but only 20 of them provide 90% of our food.
We believe that the key to prosperity for the poor lie in underexploited, edible trees and bushes, the lost treasures of Eden. In Niger, we bring them trees and bushes that can grow naturally in this dry area and give food, even in times of need. Since our arrival, Eden has served more than 2600 households in the region. The trees and bushes we offer have been researched at our local field station and need neither irrigation nor chemical fertilizers to grow. The method we use is called direct seeding and is adapted to the farmers' means.
