Redefine Conservation with Lesser-Known Foods
Sri Lanka is home to a rich variety of traditional crops that have been forgotten over time. The Lesser-known Foods campaign (අපි නොදන්න අපේ කෑම/ எமக்கே தெரியாத எம் உணவு) is bringing these nutritious, underutilized foods back to our tables.
Nourishing Communities, Protecting Nature
This campaign is about more than just food. By reviving lesser-known crops, we protect Sri Lanka's plant biodiversity, ensure food security, and empower communities to embrace sustainable farming and healthier eating.
Why Biodiversity Matters for Our Plates
Biodiversity isn't just about wildlife—it's also about the food we eat. Cultivating a variety of traditional crops makes our food systems more resilient to climate change, safeguards nutrition, and keeps our ecosystems thriving.
