WHAT IS A VISION TRIP?

ABOUT OAXACA, MX
Plant With Purpose works in three of the most impoverished states inMexico including Chiapas, Oaxaca, and Puebla. In Mexico, almost 42% of the population lives below Mexico's national poverty line (UNDP 2021). For the primarily indigenous groups with whom we work, families depend on small holder agriculture to meet nutritional and economic needs. Of indigenous peoples in Mexico, over 80% are considered to be extremely poor (UN 2015). Indigenous communities are often marginalized, making them more vulnerable to environ mental degradation, further exacerbating their cycle of poverty.

EXPERIENCE what it is like to walk along side rural farming families.

EXPLORE the causes and effects of poverty and Plant With Purpose's lasting solutions.

EQUIP yourself with the skills and knowledge to create positive change that won't end when you return home.
