Sharing Seeds, Connecting Communities: Growing Food and Agency in Honduras

In November 2019, SHI field trainer Obed Gomez organized a seed exchange event for farmers in the communities of El Caliche and La Laguna II in Siguatepeque, Honduras. In April 2020, Communications Post-Intern Victor Arboleda spoke with Obed and SHI participant farmers to hear more about their experience organizing this event and why they believe seed exchanges are so important to fostering food sovereignty and community bonds.
