Meet Amara — a cassava farmer in rural Ghana. Three years ago, drought devastated her harvest. Today, she leads a cooperative of 200 women farmers, training the next generation in climate-resilient agriculture.
Her story is one of 2.4 million we've helped write.

A Farmer's Story
When the rains stopped,
When the rains stopped,
we kept growing.
"Before GreenHarvest arrived, one bad season meant my children went hungry. Now I have the seeds, the knowledge, and the network to survive anything."— Amara Mensah, Tamale Region, Ghana · GreenHarvest partner since 2019
In 2019, a prolonged drought pushed Amara's smallholding to the brink. Through our Climate-Resilient Crop Program, she received drought-tolerant cassava varieties from our regional seed bank, attended 12 months of agronomist-led training, and gained access to a micro-irrigation cooperative.
By 2022, her yield had tripled. She now chairs a women's cooperative, having trained 200 neighbouring farmers in the same techniques. Her story mirrors that of 2.4 million farming households we've partnered with across 40 countries.

Stories from the field
"The seed bank program gave us back our heritage varieties that the big seed companies said were gone forever. We are growing food our grandparents grew — and it feeds our whole village."
Fatou Diallo
Rice farmer, Casamance, Senegal
"I thought the training was just theory. Then I saw my soil tests and realised my land had been dying for ten years. Now I know how to bring it back — without chemicals, without debt."
Rajan Kumar
Wheat farmer, Rajasthan, India
"As a cooperative leader, GreenHarvest gave me not just seeds — but the business skills to run a profitable farm and pay school fees for 14 children in my community."
María Esperanza
Coffee cooperative leader, Oaxaca, Mexico
"Before we had the grain store, every harvest we sold cheap because we had nowhere to keep the maize. Now we store it, wait for better prices, and our families eat through the dry season."
Emmanuel Owusu
Maize farmer, Brong-Ahafo, Ghana
