Presbyterian Giving Catalog - Restore a farm, and a life, this World Hunger Day

Motí Habeeb, Palestinian Farmer being interviewed

Cultivating crops and hope

Motí is a farmer in Palestine, where, today, he cultivates thriving plots of vegetables. But just a few years ago, Motí’s farm — and his livelihood — was in ruins, destroyed during conflict in the area. Motí and his family were hungry. Motí was heartbroken over the state of his barren land.
A Presbyterian-supported program helped dozens of farmers, including Motí, revive their land and begin growing vital crops again. New irrigation systems, training and healthy seedlings have helped restore life to the land, and vitality to communities and individuals like Motí, who marvels at the green fields that now surround him.
