Canzibe, Transkei
Add a clear measurable skill to the children’s arsenal of resilience and develop a self-help attitude in them.
We realize more and more that a culture change is needed in even small ways and we want to see happening through our programs.
CANZIBE GARDEN
One of six of the 25:40 model goals is a daily nutritious meal for every child in our program. We are preparing and planting a sustainable vegetable garden and orchard to provide the two local Aftercares with regular seasonal fresh vegetables and fruit. Under the leadership of a passionate gardener who attended Foundations for Farming training twice and our local Aftercare leadership, the children are systematically trained to plant this model garden with the additional vision and hope that some of them may replicate these gardens at home.
This gardening process and the care and maintenance responsibilities associated with it, form part of our discipleship walk with the children and young people.
