Sustainable Goat-raising and Bio-intensive Gardening
The project is about goat raising employing the cut-and-carry technology, in an undeveloped area being claimed by the members of the Samahang Inang Kalikasan, Inc. in Cabayugan. Gardening is a component of the project that will utilize the composted waste of the goats to produce quality vegetables for the consumption of the people in the barangay and other neighboring barangays or even the city. This will be done in the individual farms of the members. Support for this individual gardens will be through a supervised micro lending from a Revolving Fund established for the purpose with funds from the Project. Quality seed production will be part of this component.

Project Characteristics and Results
Gender Focus
Most of the members of the organization are women who are family's meager incomes. The additional incomes from these projects will greatly augment the husbands' income. The women of the association are active in the bio-intensive gardening components, and provide the greater manpower (or "womenpower") to the activity.
Significant Participation of Indigenous Peoples
Several members belong to the Tagbanua tribe, and are actively involved in the project. The PO is encouraging members from all sectors, subject to some PO membership criteria.
