Our Village

The name PlantVillage is to remind ourselves that growing more food for the planet requires the collective response one finds in a diverse interdependent community. It takes a village as the saying goes.

Our village is made up of people who come from different countries and have different skills - all sharing the same philosophy that the knowledge required to grow food should be available to every farmer in the world.
