Give rice. Support farmers. Help restore the land.

Your gift buys rice from farmers moving to regenerative practices. We deliver it to partner charities in Bali, so families eat well and farmers have a buyer for their harvest while their fields recover.

NourishChildren, mothers and families who rely on these charities share rice grown without synthetic inputs.
TransitionFarmers in their first cycles know their harvest has a buyer, at a fair price, while their fields recover.
RestoreEvery kilo supports farming that cares for soil, water and the life in the paddy.

Seven charities, one supply of rice

Schools, shelters and community kitchens across Bali receive a monthly delivery. Each month's rice is shared between them on the first delivery day.

From your gift to a kitchen in Bali

Grains of Change links three groups who rarely meet: donors around the world, farmers changing how they grow rice, and the cooks who feed children and families in Bali every day.

Delivery photos and stories from our visits, posted after each monthly delivery.

The first photos of the 2027 campaign appear here after the next delivery day.

Impact

Three things change with every kilo

Calculated from the rice delivered so far. Each 100 kg a month supports one farmer's harvest and, over a year, keeps about 500 kg of chemical fertiliser and 150 L of pesticide out of the paddies.
