Green cooking bananas, the everyday staple of every table in the community.
Green Hills is a community farm. Neighbours work the land together, and what grows here feeds the people who live here first, season after season.

Staple food for our community, and one crop the world taught us to value.

Breaking the ground by hand, then filling sack after sack of maize at harvest, with banana groves all around.
