Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, farmers are having a hard time selling their harvests. Fortunately, a project called Delivery-e Initiative was set up through a partnership between the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), Department of Agriculture (DA), and the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI).
Curaytive City Farms has joined the initiative. It is an urban farm company that helps farmers to have better connectivity with consumers, as well as facilitate the distribution of produce.
They offer three types of vegetable packages:Â
