Organic agriculture, training and farm services in Ghana
Grow it right. Grow it clean.
AgricKrakye Agro Hub trains farmers, market women, schools and households in organic crop production and food safety. We set up home gardens, school farms and commercial farms, raise quality planting materials, supply organic inputs and help clients handle produce so less of the harvest is lost.
