35 years ago today, #InternationalDayOfTheAfricanChild was founded to promote the rights and welfare of children in Africa. 💧

We at @ProjectMercy have successfully grown Malabar Spinach, native to India and South-East Asian countries in our farm in #Ethiopia and are preparing for the next generation as we speak.

Malabar Spinach thrives in hot tropical and humid climates, and is a short-lived perennial (2-3 years) in climates that do not receive frost or snow, where it turns into an annual.

Malabar has thick, succulent styled leaf and both leaves and stems are edible. They produced a great amount of seeds and are prolific self seeders.

Nutrient dense, Malabar contains high amounts of minerals and vitamins. It can prove to be consequential for providing nutrient rich food to children in their developing stages, reducing malnutrition and hunger.

Enjoy the images!
