Maybe it's time to change our grain of Thought...
Grain of Thought
Supporting the reintegration of traditional grains into Zimbabwean agriculture and diets
What is Grain of Thought?
Grain of Thought is a promoter of traditional small grain production and consumption in Zimbabwe. Our main grains of focus are sorghum (mapfunde/amabele), finger millet (zviyo/uphoko) and pearl millet (mhunga/inyawuthi). The goal is to create a climate-resilient food system in Zimbabwe, using our very own hardy and healthy traditional grains.
