Implemented in partnership with the University of Georgia (USA) and financially supported by the USDA, the project drew inspiration from the well-established Future Farmers of America program in the United States. Its core objective was to furnish schools with greenhouse facilities and equipment, thereby enabling young individuals to enhance their theoretical knowledge and practical skills in leadership, career advancement, and agricultural fundamentals. Piloted in five secondary schools across Kakheti, Samegrelo-Zemo Svaneti, Imereti, Guria, and Shida Kartli, the project equipped these schools and offered expert consultation on greenhouse utilization and management. The newfound knowledge and experience empowered students to embark on small business ventures.
