Sijonge Kuwe Food Gardening Project was very active this period and the aim of this project is to empwer previously disadvantaged communities through self help programmes.
13 women and 3 men from the previously disadvantaged communitiesof Khayelitsha were trained in food gardening skiils and all of them completed basic business skills training which is a two month course on how to run a business.
Vegetables like spinash,potatoes,carrots,cabbage,onios and tomatoes were grown and the harvest was very good due to rainy seasons of July and August..
Our future plans is to get a vacant piece of land in our area from the City of Cape Town whereby we want to grow more vegetables and give the surplus to old age homes and creches.
