is dedicated to making the garden at Chikale Primary School GMO and synthetic fertilizer free, as well as employing organic practices whenever possible. In addition to creating more nutritious food, organic methods have proven to create healthier soil conditions which tend to fare better during drought conditions. Genetically modified seeds have become prevalent throughout the agricultural industry and have been linked to various environmental and health issues. Farmers must buy GM seed every season, rather than harvest their own seed from the previous year, creating a dependency on multi-national corporations and making GM seed a more costly option in the long run. In addition, synthetic fertilizers are both transported by fossil fuels and produced with fossil fuels, making communities both dependent on global gas prices and causing alarm to the potential health risks associated with making food with fuel.
