Laetitia founded Kenda alongside members of her community in Kenya in response to the growing inaccessibility of traditional Kenyan vegetable seeds. Kenda aims to build a community-operated seed bank, reintroducing the cultivation and celebration of African indigenous vegetables by supplying seeds to women farmer groups.
