Food Gardens have formed a large part of our programme in KZN Midlands as we firmly believe the planet would be a much better place should everyone be able to feed themselves and everyone had a right to good food, grown without harm. With changing climates, building capacity and improving resilience has become even more imperative. Schools we work with do not expect “stuff” – we share knowledge, energy and enthusiasm.
MMAEP field workers encourage the use of Permaculture principles in the cultivation of school food gardens. A Permaculture garden provides a means for learners to see ecology in action and encourages teachers and learners to develop a more holistic view and respect for nature. Through working in the gardens a better understanding is fostered of topics such as food and health, energy recycling, natural relationships, team work and planning, habitats, ecosystems, environmental ethics, natural elements and resource usage.
Schools are able to feed learners wholesome, organically grown, nutritious food for lunch to supplement the existing feeding scheme. This is especially important for those whose health and family life is compromised by HIV/AIDS. The MMAEP would like to improve the sustainability and yield of the gardens, encourage the planting of traditional food crops, promote the innovative use of available resources, and reduce reliance on outside assistance.
on 22 September we will be working in two school gardens - Dargle Primary and Carshalton Primary - with about 220 learners and 8 educators.
