Brunch at La REcyclerie to raise awareness for FAWCO’s new Target Project Awesome Blossoms
Saturday, April 29th @ 11:30
At FAWCO's Biennial conference in Bratislava last month, the association unveiled its highly anticipated new Target Project: Awesome Blossoms. The initiative aims to promote Urban Farming in the impoverished slums of Nairobi. To spread the word about this new project, Eilean Ellison and Marleni Arvelo-Saillant will be co-hosting a brunch at La REcyclerie, an innovative space located in a former Parisian train station along the petite ceinture. The restaurant features locally sourced produce, which is grown in its own adjacent urban farm.
About the Target Project:
Awesome Blossoms is the latest evolution of a community-based organization, Safe Spaces, created by Mrs. Peninah Nthenya Musyimi. This project features organic, water-efficient urban farms with 500 gardens in each farm to support girls’ education and empowerment programs and with 75 women in partnership with three primary schools located in the Mathare slum area of Nairobi.
