Field notes
The homepage describes a collection-to-garden workflow: local collectors are paid by the kilo, and reused bottles, kaveera and cement sacks become seedling pots or growing spaces. Its Kasangati nursery lists seedlings across fruit, herb, ornamental and vegetable categories; soil testing is listed at 60,000 UGX per sample, with a report promised in three to five working days. Garden setups and landscaping are offered by site visit and quote.
