Teaching women how to grow healthy food was the association's first activity. They focus on small-scale horticulture; the sustainable, organic cultivation of vitamin-rich vegetables such as cabbage and eggplant. During training vegetable gardening, women learn to work a piece of land in a natural way. The vegetables are for personal use and for sale on the market.
MUWOFA's target group consists of vulnerable women in the wider region around the city of Kasese: orphan girls, girls with a disability, pregnant teenagers, early school leavers, victims of domestic violence, single mothers and widows, together around 3000 women. Muwofa encourages the women to develop and offers help and a safe place.
