Dear Global Giving Friends , we just recieved a Global Giving Disbursement of USD 1648.51 from you,  via Global Giving .

I know a few of you personally,  and some have come to visit our work. so can speak about it first hand.

Firstly, thank you, thank you ! Everything truly human in life begins with a gift, and evolves towards true gifting.

With your help, the gift we give the world is that our micro-farmer movement continues to grow - over 700 new people signed up since March 2012.  Take a look at the healthy crop growing in containers , created by a new micro-farmer member in the picture attached to this report!

Furthermore, the message is spreading far and wide- "urban farming makes cities sustainable" - see part 1 of the latest article featuring Abalimi in the attached link.

I dont know if its Valentines Day in your part of the world, like it is as I write this here in South Africa. Whatever the case, I hope that you and yours are thriving.

All the very best

Rob Small

P.S. to those of you who have visited us and know us, and also to those of you who choose to contribute even though you may never have witnessed first hand what we do, please do write something on Global Giving ?  Your words of support can be powerful
