Watch How This Business is Bringing Burundi’s Land Back to Life!

Land restoration can be quite a challenge, but Perfect Village Communities, a community-owned social enterprise in Burundi, views this challenge as a wonderful opportunity to both restore the environment and create income. Their inspiring journey is rooted in research on agroforestry and the use of local herbs as natural fertilizers and pesticides. By dedicating time to research and truly understanding the needs of Burundian farmers, PVC has fostered strong engagement and collaboration with local communities, which has been key to the success of their land restoration business model. PVC prepares, sells, and grows high-quality seedlings, and produces natural fertilizers and pesticides that are offered to local farmers at affordable prices. This approach brings three fantastic benefits: income generation, environmental enhancement, and improved well-being through increased yields, which ultimately leads to food security and better nutrition. With funding from TerraFund- a partnership by ‪@WorldResourcesInstitute‬ , ‪@onetreeplanted‬ , and ‪@RealizeImpact‬which is currently supporting Restore Local’s mission to invest in locally led restoration, ‪@perfectvillagecommunities‬ in partnership with local farmers in Bujumbura, Cibitoke and Bubanza is growing 36,000 trees aiming to restore 300 hectares on these steep hills of the region. This is made possible thanks to the support from ‪@BezosEarthFund‬ and ‪@theaudaciousproject3637‬ . Thank you for watching! Pick up your seedling and join us!
