FAITH Gardens (Food Always In The Home) are designed to produce the maximum amount of high-nutrition produce in a minimally sized garden.  Each garden is served by a single bucket drip irrigation system and provides enough vegetables for a small family.  

 

FAITH Gardens emphasize growing a standard set of vegetables / fruits using good gardening techniques, including plant rotation and composting. 

 

The following are the basics of a FAITH Garden program in a village:

• FAITH Gardens groups consist of 6-8 participants each

• FAITH Gardens consists of 4 high-nutrient, high-yield vegetables (Healthy Food Basket) planted in 4 raised bed rows

• FAITH Gardens are typically 25 by 12.5 feet in dimension

• Garden plots are de-rocked and protected with hand-built fences

• Seedlings are grown in co-operative seedling starter beds

• Partipants are trained in "Survival Gardening" curriculum developed by Healing Hands International

• Participants build bucket stands to elevate irrigation buckets and provide their own bucket as their "personal equity investment

• JVP provides a drip irrigation system and seeds for two start-up seasons​

• Participants share in 3 Bible studies during the gardening season

​

The Jubilee Village Project partners with local villages to identify and train leaders to develop and expand FAITH Gardens through the successful equipping and launching of multiple FAITH Gardens groups.
