Meals on Wheels: Linbro park Modimo o Teng co-operative making it happen for themselves
Awesome story of a community pulling together and creating a sustainable project!!
Well done guys Proudly South African, Lead SA.
Modimo o Teng (God Is Here) Co-operative is turning a pre-development wasteland and local horse manure into a bountiful garden. People who live in Linbro Park or who visit to ride horses or buy plants can buy delicious fresh spinach , double the quantity than the bunches at well known supermarkets. Co-operative chairperson, Margaret Thaba says,” The King’s School suggested we use this land until it is developed and have helped with tools. We have dug a well and made compost on site. Besides spinach we are growing lettuce, cabbage and beetroot. “There are eight members in the co-operative, some of whom have jobs and some who do not. Members try to visit daily to water by hand. “It is so inspiring to see people being proactive about improving their lives rather than begging or turning to crime,” says a visitor to Linbro. If you see people on site, pull over and buy.
