Sibahle Details
SIBAHLE MEANS "WE ARE BEAUTIFUL" IN ZULUOUR GOAL IS TO CREATE A SUSTAINABLE NETWORK OF PEOPLE WHO WORK TOGETHER TO FEED AND CARE FOR THE COMMUNITY USING READILY AVAILABLE LAND RESOURCES, AND SOME HUMAN INGENUITY, AT PUBLIC HEALTH CLINICS.AFTER ALL, GOOD FOOD IS GOOD MEDICINE.SIBAHLE SOUP KITCHENOur team served 200 meals a week for 5 years to the patients of the Tladi TB Health Clinic in Soweto. Many patients, including the chronically ill, struggle with taking their medication on an empty stomach, so the meals were served early in the day. SIBAHLE NATURAL VEGGIE GARDENOur first veggie garden is onsite at the Tladi clinic where we use natural growing principals with no chemicals or GMOs. We're creating a place of bounty and beauty, focussing on planting indigenous, nutritious, drought resistant plants. Our farmers work hard all year to grow the veggies that are used in the soup kitchen. We educate, and learn from, elders, patients, fellow farmers, and children from the local primary school.
