In Kenya, soaring food prices means that many families lack access to the fresh vegetables that are essential for a healthy diet. In response to this nutritional crisis, Peggy Pascal devised a simple way to grow fresh vegetables using only a recycled bag, soil and sprouts. With a Farm in a Bag outside their door, families in Kenya are able to cook nourishing meals at minimal cost. Pascal's revolutionary Farm in a Bag is helping reverse malnutrition in Kenya and empowering families to grow food for themselves even in very small spaces.
