By Rob | family micro farmer in Africa :)
Greetings dear GlobalGiving Friends
Todd A. Somodevilla & Marysia Makowska ,USA moviemakers, came to CapeTown and made an award winning movie about our work! Their website is http://www.abalimifilm.com
See the movie via the link below!
As you may already know, we are not a "begin-end" project.
We are an intergenerational programme, a permanent golden thread weaving among unemployed people in their thousands, who can thereby find their way to become food secure at home and to create cash secure micro-farming enterprises that last.
This is enabled to happen because people like you help us to make it happen.
There would be no hunger in the world if more people created family micro-farms. There would be no need for unemployment if those with money chose to buy their food from family micro-farmers. Family micro-farming is cost effective and sustainable. 100m2 can feed a family of four or five year round with all the fresh veg they need. 500m2 can generate an income of up to ZAR 3000.00 (about USD270) per month with relative ease and feed a family of four or five. ZAR 3000 does not sound like a lot to those of us who are used to middle classlives. But its significant for the 50% of the world's population who are excluded from the first world economy.
Thank you,as ever, one and all for your ongoing interest and amazing support.......
