Abalimi Open Garden Awards
Author: Abalimi Bezekhaya
As you all know, we are hosting "Open Gardens" in Spring, as part of 40th year roll out! Please circulate this if you can’t help.
All the Abalimi home and community gardens are invited to participate in this event where they can show their gardens, meet with visitors and sell their produce. Abalimi will assist with coordinating the routs for visiting and farmer availability. The culmination will be an award ceremony in October and you are invited to participate.
We are looking for awards that can be presented to these home and community gardens to encourage them, bearing in mind that every garden is a miracle in our extreme conditions! We are currently working with over 60 community gardens and have trained over 500 home gardens this year alone. We support around 3000 micro-farmers per annum. Please let us know if you can assist with awards for these amazing gardens!
