Black Nossob Farmstead - Community Farm Volunteering

About Program
Our project consists of a group of people who are passionate about farming, together with volunteers we would like to build a community farm to supply food for the needy and poor.
It has come to our attention, that in our own town of Gobabis people, especially children are suffering due to the lack of proper nutrition on a daily basis. Food prices are just too high for the average person living in the shanty towns. According to an article in the New Era newspaper on 09 March 2022, two children have died due to malnutrition.
We want to setup a community farm to produce food for the needy, our project also aim to provide opportunity to educate the poor in agriculture production practices.
Thus the reason for this project. All proceeds from our volunteer program will be used to establish a sustainable community farm. Your contributions will enable us to create a much needed environment to assist our community.
