This is awesome, thank you for sharing. Here are some native fruit trees that could also work well in a South African food forest. SourPlum (Ximenia caffra), White-berry bush (Flueggea virosa), Wild Apricot (Dovyalis zeyheri), and Natal plum (Carissa macrocarpa).
Hey, that GRIN company that promised to pay us for liking your video, didn't pay me. They want me to give them money to get my payout. Fix it.
Good job
Keep it up with the good work leadership 🌱🌍💚✨

At times I feel sad bc the need is big, I live in a town where people walk by. They all want spinache, marogo and chillies ec…but we use munisipality water, in other words we pay for the water.
And Im proud that you didnt get negative of all life stuggles.
My heart gets so excited and I feel proud of you.
Great learning chance …!
No one is coming to save you, not even the government.
So marvelous, I love it. Of course. The way forward is for humanity to create their own destiny. No government is interested in the people on the ground.
Great project.
Before the white men came the entire forest was a garden.
🙌🏽 I wish every kasi to have this
So beautiful! Love to see it!
Love it
Cheers fellow earthlings
Beautiful, South Africa needs your great contributions, stay in South Africa!
I love this story, it's an absolute inspiration. These are little things we can all do to improve our food situation and how we interact with the environment around us, even with all the limitations…it is possible. I love how they work together, and yet everyone has their little thing going on. That's what we need more than ever, less competition and more corporation. God bless their hearts and hands
