This September, a team of brave trekkers are taking on the Tanzanian forest, in a bid to end poverty and grow futures across eastern Africa.

Hiking 80km across the Mahale Mountain range in western Tanzania, professionals from global food and farming businesses are uniting to take a big step (or rather 1,400,000 steps!) to ensure that the power of food can change people and the planet for the better.

Farm Africa is an international charity reducing poverty in eastern Africa by helping farmers grow more, sell more and sell for more.

Today, more than half of the world's extreme poor live in sub-Saharan Africa, the vast majority work in agriculture. Farm Africa provides training in the field to support smallholder farmers growing agriculture, protecting the environment and developing businesses in rural areas.
