This family will get eggs, two kinds of white meat and a garden.  But they won't just get food, they'll get a chance to feed themselves -- and their neighbors. An $1800 loan can put a family in business for life.

The Backyard Agriculture System allows families to produce eggs, chicken and pork as well as fresh vegetables from the gardens that the chickens and pigs cultivate and fertilize -- and does so while removing these animals from the streets and houses where they spread odor, filth and disease.

This is a pig and a chicken in a kitchen.
