The Region 10, Regional Democratic Council (RDC) is recruiting regional farmers to supply fresh produce for hot meals to be prepared for students residing in far-flung communities.
The Department of Public Information (DPI) press release stated that the project is a replica of the David G’s Five B’s project that is currently being carried out in Kwakwani and other communities across the country.
The hot meals will be prepared with fresh ingredients produced right in the communities and aims to replace the traditional juice and biscuit which is supplied to schools across the country. This is not only a gravitation towards healthier consumption but creates employment for farmers as well as those responsible for preparing the meals, the DPI release added.
