Sibagat Launches LISO SA KINABUHI (Seed of Life)
Published via Bagat Notes: April 9, 2020
Amidst
Community Quarantine and COVID-19 threats, Sibagat, Agusan del Sur thru
the Municipal Agriculture Office launches the LISO SA KINABUHI
initiative.
LSK
aims to compliment the efforts of the government and private sectors in
the municipality for the households to cope with the uneasy situation. 6
variety of garden seeds were distributed targeting those in the below
poverty line residents of the municipality. First wave already reached 1,298 households for the whole 24 barangays.
LISO
SA KINABUHI hopes to serve 3,299 beneficiaries prioritizing the 1,298
household below poverty line, 185 households with malnourished children
and 350 municipal employees that have served as frontliners too.
There
are around 1,466 LISO SA KINABUHI Vegetable packs open for those
interested residents/availers. One can communicate the Municipal
Agriculture Office page or any of the MAO personnel (Miss Conney
Anunciado thru fb) you knew and mechanics will be explained to you.
Seeds
may be little but like in the Bible passage about a mustard seed. Once
grown, it will surely give life, shade and wellness to a family and the
community. A seed of a living faith will bring you a blessing of life.
In
this quarantine period vegetable gardening have been encouraged and
even many have opted to initiate backyard and container gardening. As a
way of maximizing time, keep away from boredom and grow own food since
mobility is very limited and other reasons.
Second wave is underway.
The
MLGU and MAO also have encouraged organizations and individuals to
share and swap seeds among neighbors and communities with utmost
reminder to observe the necessary protocols.
MLGU
also hopes for more seeds to come in the coming days. It also welcomes
seed donations from private organizations and individuals.
Sibagat is a member of the League of Organic Agriculture Municipalities, Cities and Provinces in the Philippines.
Note: 20% of the farmers in the municipality belongs to the below poverty line matrix.
Farmers must live well and be served well.

Posted via Sibagatnon Ato Kini: June 15, 2020
On January 2020, COVID-19 brought the world into a standstill. Countries and Governments imposed lockdowns. Citizens are told to stay at home. Everywhere, the streets are empty and the economy halted. Local Government Units scrambled to feed its constituents thru relief package but it is not enough. Then the question. How can the LGU sustain its people thru the pandemic?
WATCH the Video: Sibagat's LISO SA KINABUHI
The answer? "Liso sa Kinabuhi". An LGU initiated program which aims to ensure food security and nutrition among Sibagatnons. A challenge for Sibagatnons below poverty threshold, those with malnourished children, employees, farmers and other Sibagatnon alike to grow their own food thru backyard gardening. We choose to heal as one. We choose to go back to the soil. We choose to heal our environment, by coming together, working hand in hand with love and respect for nature. We choose to go back to the basics. We choose to grow our own food. We choose health. We choose life for a healthy and sustainable Sibagat. How about you?
