The farm’s sustainable model of harvesting and selling vegetables helps to support the compassionate distribution of nutritious cooked meals to the most vulnerable in the communities of Hangberg and Imizamo Yethu. It is also a hub of learning and psycho-social support for youth not enrolled in school; and a place of land restoration.

The volunteer programme has been subsidised to the value of R6000 per person. Once your application has been accepted, we ask for a registration fee of R360 (attendees 15 and up) and R180 (children 10 – 14).
