Culminating their 14-week hands-on training, KSK farmers proudly harvest their crops at a Harvest Festival, signifying the rewards of their dedication to the program and passion for agriculture.

The event recognized the feat of 72 graduates from Sitio Liwliw, Brgy. Camp 4, Tuba, and Sitio Calamay, Brgy. Bayabas, Sablan in Benguet; as well as Purok 1, Happy Hollow, Baguio City.
