URICT received a Trellis Fund grant to train farmers on pest and disease management for fruit crops. Karla Huerta, a graduate student studying Horticulture and Agronomy in the UC Davis Viticulture and Enology Department, will support the project and travel to Uganda to work with farmers.
We have close to 50 tones of maize, millet, beans, rice etc we want to process so that we are able to provide food to more villagers. URICT as an organisation is seeking for $3.860 to purchase a Grain Mill.

Thanks everyone who had hand in starting this great Agriculture Project for helping children, grandmothers and their orphaned to get enough quality food and people in Kamuli district to learning organic farming.
Every Saturday we get all in Agriculture activities- organic farming and feeding animals. At URICT, we teach and prepare our children to plan themselves for future and to determine what they want to be.
God has been good. There is a lot of joy and happiness when you know you have enough to eat. Thanks everybody who made it possible.
The project is feeding children in the orphanage and school, grandmothers and their orphaned. Nutrition and balance diet for all.
The beauty with sustainable farming and animal-husbandry is that even if its not raining we can still harvest enough food for the URICT and some even for selling to attract some small income. Its a good start, thanks to the loving hearts of the men and women who stood firm and strong and said enough is enough, let the Children at URICT starve no more. We shall forever be grateful for your love, care and kindness.
Fish farming can provide quality fish which is highly nutritious to the Children and Volunteers at the some time, we can sell some to the market to bring in some income.
