	Description:		This Christian Aid Week (12-18 May 2013) we're focusing on projects around the world that are helping communities to grow themselves enough food to eat, not just for today but for tomorrow. In this podcast, Christian Aid’s Susan Barry explains how a simple text message containing weather forecast information is proving to be revolutionary for farmers in Kenya. Susan talks to Jimmy Wetindi who works for Christian Aid in Kenya about why this project is necessary, and also interviews Truphena Iriri, a local farmer, about the change these text messages have brought for her and her family.
