Vanessa’s story – her farms have become the talk of the community

Vanessa has discovered the amazing potential of Farming God’s Way, and she’s really inspired by the success stories of other farmers who have tried these new methods. They show her that positive change is possible. Recently, she decided to take a chance and expand her farm by another half-hectare, using money she saved up with a local savings group. She’s hoping this harvest will help feed her family for the whole season.

At first, Vanessa faced a lot of doubt from her neighbors and even her husband Ondegwa, who thought her pursuit of Farming God’s Way was a bit unrealistic. She remembers, “When I first got to attend FGW training, my husband thought it was a waste of time. He was worried about the farming supplies I brought back from P4P, scared that we wouldn’t be able to pay it off if the harvest didn’t turn out well. But I was determined to make it work.”

With a strong spirit, Vanessa explained the new planting techniques she learned and encouraged her husband to help her set things up. While many around her including his husband hesitated to plant, she put her heart into her work, drawing curious looks from her neighbors. “I always remind them that new ideas can be a bit tricky at first,” she said with a smile. “Just like when John the Baptist preached in the wilderness; people may have thought he was just making noise. But over time, they came to understand the true gospel, which brought healing and order to their lives. P4P has our best interests at heart! We have so many resources we can tap into, and by adopting this sustainable farming method, we’ll not only help the environment but also enjoy bigger harvests, it’s a win-win!”

Now, her FGW and conventional farms have become the talk of the community, sparking interest and questions. Her husband has been so inspired by her progress that he’s now thrilled to work alongside Vanessa in the FGW endeavor. This new support only fuels Vanesa’s passion as she gets ready for the next season, dreaming of expanding their FGW plots even more 

Feeling proud of what she’s accomplished, Vanessa can hardly believe her dreams are coming to life. With the upcoming harvest, she looks forward to building a comfortable home and improving her family’s quality of life overall.
