Do you have a passion for gardening and/or growing food?
If so, we sure could use your help!

Two weeks ago, our agriculture team hosted their very first three-day Farming God’s Way training with the community.
(Read more about the philosophy and strategies of FGW)
Close to 60 people, representing seven different villages, attended each day!
During the training, the agriculture team used the Biblical keys of Farming God’s Way to teach transformation in people's lives. Attendees also learned the management keys of Farming God's Way, and received practical experience with making teren ropes and setting up a garden.
The attendees planted corn, beans, and sweet potatoes into a 6 meter x 6 meter garden, which in Farming God’s Way is called a Well Watered Garden. Everyone was able to practice clearing the land, digging planting stations, applying inputs, planting, and covering with God’s blanket (mulch).
The planting of the garden came to completion with everyone circled around it, praying for blessings in their lives and gardens.
From this training, the agriculture team has been able to establish five Farmer Groups. These groups will work together in each other’s garden learning Farming God’s Way as a team! The Show Mercy team will go out into the community and meet with these groups in their personal gardens to encourage, disciple, and evaluate how they are implementing Farming God’s Way.



Experiential Gardens

Ministry & Teaching
With the message of Farming God’s Way, together we will give the people in our area a real tool and practical knowledge to loosen, remove, and break the yoke of poverty.
This next season (beginning late February) the Show Mercy farm will have three field scale plots (.25 acres, .2 acres, .2 acres) and a demonstration vegetable garden (.15 acres). The farm will also have eight comparison 6m x 6m gardens well as four small demonstration plots.
The comparison gardens will show conventional farming on one side, and Farming God’s Way on the other, allowing visitors to see the real difference in the two methods of farming.


We are beyond excited as this ministry and garden takes off. Lives are being impacted.
