Namaste all,

Umthombo has been doing their own yoga - so many different asana's; Facilitator Training, The Leader Within Childrens Camp, Pre- Planting preparation and the up and coming Diversity Day.

The children and volunteers have been so inspiring with their time and energy. Our closing ceremoney at the Follow-up Leadership Camp was testimony to this with many tearfilled goodbyes. What better way to decsribe the journey than through some pictures.

Green Fingers PDF Print E-mail

Green Fingers – my mom and gran are blessed with green fingers and their gardens are exquisite. It’s also their knowledge of the flower names, shrubs, annuals, perennials, shady, sunny. I assumed that I had inherited the green gene – well I am still looking for it!

Livingston from Soilforlife has the green gene and Andrea, Liefie, Sinethemba , Zamile,  Saskia,  Odwa  all have the green gene. We had so much fun learning about the best way to grow vegetables. I now know the plants need lots of love and mulch, we cannot ever give too much love or too much mulch.
