My Nonprofit Reviews

As an upcoming organic farmer, The Hummingbird Project's founders, Chris and Marilyn, were responsible for completely changing the way that I look at growing vegetables. Rather than looking at nourishing the plants I realised that I was nourishing the soil which would in turn nourish the plant - knowledge and understanding that will help me for the rest of my life.

I was fortunate enough to attend their lectures at Navdanya farm's Earth University for the A-Z of Organic Agriculture & Agroecology course, and will be forever grateful that I had access to such important knowledge in such an easy to digest and comprehensible way.

They are a wonderful teaching team who complement each other with their various experiences, not to mention incredibly encouraging and supportive to all the students.
Their humility and 'go do it!' attitude was indescribably inspiring to all the course participants and I witnessed many a behind the scenes conversation where what they have achieved with The Hummingbird Project had prompted many of the participants to realise that they had the potential to do something similar and effect positive change like THP has already done around India, Africa and USA.

I am so grateful to have met Chris and Marilyn and having experienced their teachings firsthand, I know without a doubt that what The Hummingbird Project is doing is worthwhile for the future of organic farming and the world's food security.
Like the humble hummingbird, they're doing "the best they can", and that seems to be a pretty amazing job so far.
