Hello! We are a dynamic nonprofit/NGO in Zambia. We work with 10 women's farming cooperatives to produce fresh vegetables. Government policies or climate events cause drops in vegetable prices so we're setting up an agro-processing site to can tomatoes, freeze sliced okra, etc. so that they don't rot. With grid limitations, we are running all of this on solar energy! We need a solar electrical engineer to provide a second opinion on the electrical load, battery requirements, types of inverters, and anything else that we might not have thought of.

The Harvest Fund's vision is to be an enterprise that builds the agricultural economy while eradicating poverty and promoting environmental sustainability. Our mission is to improve the livelihoods of Zambian female farming cooperatives. In Zambia and similar countries, women are the backbone of agriculture yet toil away with their bare hands and feet and basic tools. The Harvest Fund creates a profitable half-hectare vegetable plot for each of its 10+ cooperatives that is watered year-round with a solar-powered irrigation system. We provide seed, fertilizer, and regenerative agriculture training to make these women farmers more productive and permanently escape poverty.
