Coming back after long holidays the garden needed a lot of attention and support. The whole garden was very dry we have to remove the dead plant, trees and remove weed. We have to start from the scratch to rebuild the plot, making new plan for the garden for 2008.

  • 14 January: We had been visited by a Founder and Gisela from Garden Development and we discussed about the garden the problems that sometimes we come across within the garden .During this time we also have a visitor by the name Sophie who she has her own garden at Bulumko High School . She is very good on vegetable how to prepare them and plant them. She helped us a lot to rebuild our garden, we prepare the soil, planting seed of cabbage, spinach, onion, squach, butternut and beans. After seven days we plant them, the seedlings geminated and then we have planted them after fourteen days, we planted four plots and some of them are left. So we transplanted them in to trays and then we can keep them. Our aims are to help the community gardens and other projects.
  • 23 January: Gisela come up with Peter from Irrigation development and she brings us Marry gold and tomatoes we also plant them round about six plots and then we designed new plots for Herbs, Flowers and then we make basins around the trees .
  • 29 January: We have bought one load of Kraal manure at Green Point small Farm.
