🌱 Seeds of Change: Empowering Farmers, Preserving Traditions 🌾
A powerful grassroots movement is blooming in Sarawak! 💪🌾Led by local civil society groups, the Community Seed Sharing & Saving Initiative is helping farmers protect traditional crops, build food security, and reclaim seed sovereignty. 💚
At the heart of this initiative:
✅ Free seed and cutting exchanges
✅ Training in seed saving, cleaning, and storage
✅ Community-led seed banks to protect rare local varieties
✅ Revival of traditional farming knowledge
“Seeds are more than just crops — they carry the culture, memory, and resilience of our people,” says Gabriel Hii, Co-Chair of the Sarawak CSO-SDG Alliance.
🌍 With food prices rising and climate challenges growing, this movement is helping local farmers stay strong, sustainable, and self-reliant.
