Visit to Whyfarm in Siparia, Trinidad & Tobago. Promoting Agriculture, Agri-Business & Food Security
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 чер 2024
- Massy Stores recently launched a new store in Siparia and as part of an initiative to engage local farmers, they have partnered with Whyfarm to supply local produce to their store.
According to Mr. Alpha Sennon, Founder and Executive Director at Whyfarm, this collaboration has not only provided local farmers with the opportunity to satisfy a steady demand for local produce but has also created opportunities for local farmers to produce value added products.
These partnerships create great synergy between local farmers and supermarkets chains that push us further to realize the goal of food security here in Trinidad & Tobago.
We would like to thank Alpha and his family for their kind hospitality as well as the folks at Massy Stores for collaborating with EatAhFood to bring you this episode of GrownHome.
Be sure to check out the Whyfarm Facebook Page for more information.

Indeed Trinidad still have an abundance of food options
Great I love d video ,I am from Trinidad P Ville. I am 62, I plan t too but boy d insects get to my pachoy before I do, I try not to use d chemicals too often but have no choice, anyway keep up d good work and keep feeding your nation ,l am proud of u all
Hi Kathleen you have my grandmother’s maiden name. However, if you want to not use chemicals to repel insects you can try tobacco. One of my elders at church taught me that and here in Connecticut it proves to work in the Spring/Summer. Soak the tobacco in water and sprinkling it on the soil near the plant. You can even leave a few droppings all over. You can try it.
Beautiful mih Brodder
Much Respect!!!
Now why on earth would 6 silly folks dislike this video??
Trinidad definitely needs more people like you buddy.keeep up the good work bro!
Siparia forever!!! Good work, brother!!!
