In 2016, Haiti was our first nation F.A.R.M.S. provided international support in the Northwest region near Bombardopolis. In partnership with a local group we purchased beans, plaintatains, and rice from women farmers which were donated to a local school in the area.
In 2020 we expanded our efforts in the Caribbean and partnered with the Green Farm Foundation in Arima, Trinidad to build a cold storage facility for local rural farmers to increase access to refrigeration, expanding their retail markets. F.A.R.M.S., hired 5 to 7 local workers to build the structure. We also purchased and donated produce to local residents during the initial phases of the pandemic.
In 2022 with the help of the funders we were able to purchase equipment and hand tools for local rural farmers in Arima, Trinidad. F.A.R.M.S., was also purchased over 3,000 lbs. of produce from several local farmers in Arima which was then donated to several orphanages and eldercare homes in the area as well.
