Dear Global Giving Friends,
Greetings from Cape Town.
Many of our micro-farmers could be more aptly called micro-home gardeners. The example pic attached shows a succesful micro-garden in containers since there was no space to install a bigger garden.
These micro-gardeners out number our community gardens and in fact are more quickly sustainable than community gardens. The micro gardeners still attend training and get a start-up pack of manure,seed and seedlings, but from there onwards they come to our non-profit garden centres to buy what they need to carry on.
Your support makes the initial training and start up pack possible.
There is a saying that small scale gardners are the ultimate revolutionaries since they can become free from control of the big food system which tries to control food choices for the average person through pricing.
Thank you for continuing with us on the long walk out of poverty to freedom, in this case healthy, fresh, food freedom.
