Mom & I picked our first homegrown #strawberries of 2026. Missing from photo are the 22 fruits we ate in yard, while picking them 🍓 They're really sweet & delicious. These are our native strawberries. Our June everbearing ones are about 2-3 times the size of these smaller, native strawberries. The native strawberries are smaller but their taste is much sweeter.

GCSAYN is proud to be represented at the 4th Africa Food Systems Transformation Meeting in Accra.

Together, we continue to strengthen youth participation and contribute to shaping a more sustainable and food-secure future for the continent.

Transforming #foodsystems beyond agric. is key to tackling these challenges & accelerating SDG progress.

I finished my gardening tasks just before raindrops came. Got most of my thinning done. Got all the cucumbers & cantaloupe seedlings repotted. Transplanted more salad greens & peas.

Added my perlite/vermiculite mixture & mixed it deep into soil in pots before transplanting/repotting. I scattered some over my soil remediation areas too.

Time to rest a bit before dinner.

What if farming could restore ecosystems instead of exhausting them? 🌱

🎯 Building sustainable #FoodSystems takes more than vision — it requires actionable frameworks and strong implementation capacities.

🙌🏽 In the Flavours of Change Cup project, we are supporting European partners to build capacities for driving local food systems transformation to promote the social and professional inclusion of migrants in the culinary sector.
