Abstract

The Project of vegetable garden establishment aimed to increase women income with the objective of emphasizing the women to join in capacity building groups through vegetable garden establishment and to assess the progress of the project. The project applied both quantitative and qualitative type of research design sampling techniques including convenience purposive and simple random sampling. The simple sizes include 65 respondents and the author applied SPSS to analyze the quantitative data. Through the assessment made on the community, various challenges were identified like absence of knowledge of entrepreneurship, low education, lack of funds and bad perception in the community. From those challenges women chose the best prioritization of the project among the four projects. They chose the vegetable garden cultivation because it seems that the resources, which can support that project and community demand, are available.
