ARC holds agricultural workshop in Kenya

Kenya has lost 50% of its forest cover in the last 30 years, according to a government report. That was the disturbing statistic heard by faith leaders at a workshop in sustainable agriculture and creation stewardship organised by ARC in Kijabe, Kenya, in May 2012. The workshop combined the religious basis for caring for the environment with practical training in a faith-based form of sustainable agriculture called Farming God’s Way.
