Helen Keller International in partnership with Mondelez Foundaiton and the Lagos State Government organized a harvest fair. This was organized to showcase farm produce from nine primary school gardens as part of the Nutrition and Healthy Lifestyle project in Ikeja Local Government.
After the groundbreaking ceremony on the 1st of June 2018, HKI supported these schools with viable seeds to cultivate gardens where cucumber, orange-fleshed sweet potatoes, maize and ugwu were planted.
So, the harvest fair which took place at Agidingbi Primary School on the 31st of October 2018 provided an opportunity for pupils of benefiting schools to display their produce. In attendance were dignitaries from the State and Local Government, State Ministry of Education, Cadbury Nigeria Plc, Country Manager of HKI and other stakeholders.
