In Surigao del Sur Province, the PNFSP member organization, Farmers Learning Center-Caraga (FLC), is making a significant impact by enhancing sustainable agriculture and community-level appropriate technology through learning farms. These learning farms serve as centers for education in diversified and integrated organic farming, initiating a shift towards agroecology and away from the conventional chemical farming promoted by the government and agribusiness corporations. In this initiative, FLC also supports in the formation of farmers' organizations for small-holder farmers. An example of this is the establishment of the St. Pio Farmers Association for Sustainable Agriculture. This is their story. This mini-documentary was produced by PNFSP and FLCCI with support from Solidagro and Enabel - Belgian Development Agency.

Organic farming is sustainable agriculture and environment-friendly, utilizing natural resources to produce organic fertilizer and pesticides. It yields organic products that are safe, nutritious, and healthy for everyone.
