We needed 15 volunteers to make a vegetable garden in Philippi. We also needed all the gardening equipment such as spades, forks, seeds, compost, trees, watering can, garden hose, seedlings. Refreshments for the creche children and volunteers. |
|
We managed to make 12 vegetable beds, which included onions, beetroot, tomatoes, cabbage, cauliflower, mealies, carrots, pumpkin, squash, spinach, pepper, chillies, lettuce and parsley. As a bonus we planted strawberries and three fruit trees-peach , plum and nectarine. We gave them compost and we left all the gardening tools there so that they can maintain the garden. |
|
Almost 30 volunteers participated, including people from the Netherlands and Woolworths. We arrived there after 10 am. |
|
Starke Ayres gave us 10% discount on all gardening equipment. Mary Harding Donated a Bus and Driver to take us to Philippi. |
|
We would like to thank all the volunteers who participated and a special thank you to GGSA for making us part of this wonderful day. We also received 15 pizzas and a few days later I was told it came from Fidentia, thank you Fidentia. also thanks to Mary Harding who donated the transport. the creche principal and teachers were very grateful. All the volunteers had such a good time that they offered their services when we have such a venture again. |
