GROWING HOPE
Growing Hope, one seed, one garden at a time.
We're a peacebuilding project, inspiring food sovereignty by sharing permaculture wisdom and initiating food gardens in schools in South Africa. We champion soil regeneration and working with natural systems to support life.
THE MOVEMENT
THE MISSIONThe Growing Hope Movement arose out of the ashes of civil and social unrest in South Africa in July 2021. Realizing food insecurity is a national security risk and that climate action is real - we choose to plant food gardens and teach permaculture wisdom and inspire food self-reliance as a courageous peacebuilding initiative!
Growing Hope: Mission 2022 is an initiative to seed one food garden every week in South African schools; that's 52 food gardens during 2022! Can you help us grow!Our Journey so Far
We're on a mission in 2022 to find a sponsor for every week of the year to change the lives of South Africa youth!
