ZIRMA

AboutZirma

Zirma is an apolitical cooperative, social and agricultural project that has been operating since 2021 from the town of Ardeh- North of Lebanon.
Due to the deterioration of living conditions that we are facing in Lebanon, basic needs such as fresh fruits and vegetables, milk, meat and eggs... are no longer available to a large number of families.
This is the reason behind the initiation of Zirma project. Its aim is to stand by our people and reduce the economic burdens that they are facing during these difficult times.

Projects

To achieve a healthy nutritional cycle, Zirma projects are divided into three main sectors: agriculture, moune and livestock.

i. Agriculture: Locals put their neglected lands in the custody of Zirma’s youth, who set it up and grow various types of vegetables in an organic way. Most Zirma workers are paid monthly or daily wages for their work. The products are sold locally at low prices and we reinvest the profits by developing projects (increasing the number of lands and workers, adopting modern irrigation and farming methods...).

ii. Moune: The Zirma team cooperates with experienced women to transform agricultural products into natural household goods (jams, pickles, juices, tomato paste, vinegar...). Thus, we empower women in our society and provide every home with the best quality food at the best prices.

iii. Livestock: The Zirma team raises livestock to benefit from their milk and meat. And we feed it the leftover vegetables from agriculture, to avoid wastage. We started by raising a modest number of local goats and sheep to gain experience and be able to develop ourselves and deal with foreign livestock soon.
