Grow All Season Long: Greenhouse Kits for Farms

Grow All Season Long: Greenhouse Kits for Farms

The Shchedryk Charitable Organization, in partnership with the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP), is launching a greenhouse support programme for small-scale fruit and vegetable producers.

Participating communities: Snihurivska, Shevchenkivska, Shyrokivska, Zavodska (Pervomaiska), and Bereznehuvatska.

What will you receive?

A ready-to-install greenhouse kit (90 m² or 150 m²), including:

• a frame greenhouse with polycarbonate covering;
• a solid-fuel heating system to extend the growing season;
• an automatic ventilation system;
• a drip irrigation system with a water storage tank and pump station;
• installation and operational guidance.

Assistance is provided in the form of equipment, not cash.

You are eligible to participate if you:

• have been growing fruit and vegetables in open fields and/or greenhouses for at least one year;
• have experience selling your produce;
• plan to expand your greenhouse operation or transition to greenhouse cultivation;
• have not received similar assistance from other donors during the past 12 months;
• own a plot of land suitable for installing a greenhouse.

  Registering as a sole proprietor is not mandatory, but it is considered an advantage.

  Additional priority is given to:

  • internally displaced persons (IDPs) who have relocated their agricultural activities and need to expand or restore their operations;
  • farms whose greenhouses or production infrastructure have been damaged or destroyed as a result of shelling;
  • greenhouse operations located on land that was previously contaminated with explosive ordnance but has since been confirmed as safe and cleared.

  These criteria are not mandatory; however, under equal conditions, they provide an additional advantage to applicants who meet them.
