We built a community kitchen! The community kitchen is currently being used for workshops on food processing and nutritional cooking. All workshops are taught by local indigenous leaders & focus on native ingredients, like amaranth. The kitchen will also be used to produce locally made artesanal products in the future.

We fed 64 kids with a 3-week nutritional amaranth program during the COVID crisis. Guatemala continues to be among the countries with the worst malnutrition in the world.

While our mission is to build long term food security, the pandemic merited a quick response with emergency aid. We provided 20 Kaqchikel families with direct support at start of the COVID crisis.
