Farm in a Barrel
Farm in a Barrel is a simple, effective tool to help someone in need start a backyard farming business. Everything needed to set up a farm is packed into a 55 gallon drum barrel and can be set up in a few hours. The project relies on local economies for inputs and local leadership for management. Using inexpensive materials reduces the risk of improper use and/or reselling, and the simplicity of the project minimizes the confusion and complexity as the project travels across cultures.

Village Drill
The Village Drill is a low-tech, high impact manual drill that can reach water 280 feet underground. The drill is manually powered, employing a team of five local entrepreneurs who source villages, schools and other community groups that need access to safe drinking water. One drill team can build 20-40 wells every year, and the entire project was created on a microfinance platform to ensure sustainability.
