Cultivating renewal in Nigeria through Greenhouse farming
The vision for The Mark43 Institute to transform a nation is twofold. It begins with land in Nigeria where we will provide resources for residents to farm it and benefit from its bounty. But it also equips those same people, who have a vision for a better life, with education and training so they may achieve their goals.
Through greenhouse farming communities governed by The Mark43 Development Initiative, not only will people be gainfully employed, they will be formed in ways that will enable them to discover who they are and can be in God.
