NCV’s campus is a working farm. Agricultural training for the community contributes to food security for the entire area.

Greenhouses: NCV has four greenhouses on our campus which allow us to have a consistent yield despite Rwanda’s fluctuating seasons. These produce abundantly for us, allowing us to sell excess and offset the costs of our programming.

Orchard and Outdoor vegetable gardens: Outside of the greenhouses, NCV keeps large sections of our campus as productive growing space. The gardens produce tomtoes, onions, eggplants, cabbage, kale, green peppers, cucumber, squash and several other vegetables. Our orchard is abundant with mango, citrus, avacado, bannana, papaya, apple, pomegranate, and a few other fruit tree species. We continue to experiment with interplanting and other sustainable farming practices to improve our yield and protect our soil.

Agroecological principles are increasingly incorporated to combat topsoil degradation and improve sustainability.
