The "Down to Earth" project is an educational initiative open to the community, where in conjunction with the NIAT (National Institute of Agricultural Technology) participants are taught to grow vegetables without agrochemicals, only using natural products. RPU offers the space, the tools, and the insurance, and the NIAT offers the technical training and the seeds. The gardeners cultivate their parcels and attend the trainings. The vegetables are for self-consumption or for exchange. |
