AgGrandize is a partnering organization because we know the best work happens when we rely on one another, building trust, and one man we’ve learned to trust and relied on over the years is Dave Kier.  

After this crop, the funds will be recycled for future crops, with the profit going to sustain apprentice tuition and expenses. Thank you for investing in sustainable farm development projects like these!

I worked in the railway industry for decades, but that wasn’t as natural as this. Something about farming, it’s inborn for me, it’s who I am. I wanted to get away from the city and to enjoy a quieter life, and farming has made that possible. Thank you for coming to see what we do here.

With drought and famine affecting much of East Africa, our partners in the region are a secure source of food for their neighbors and income for their families. This tomato crop has been highly valuable, providing a 50% profit and helping support an outstanding network of discipleship training centers you've helped support.
