The work so far done...

What began over a couple of years ago as a small initiative has now grown into a nationwide project... EFOTI is gradually maturing into a bigger and more appreciated project driver for tea and fruit growing initiative in Uganda. The journey, which began in Kamwenge, has finally crossed the equator through to the north and still spreading to the other regions of the East and South.

Tirelessly, the founder of EFOTI, Mr. Edwin Ankunda, traverses the northern region, preaching and doing tea planting among the people the region. Having done a preliminary survey on the viability of tea growing in the north, Edwin has embarked on a confident mission of ensuring that every district in the north gets tea seedlings, courtesy of EFOTI.
