Mzanzi Organics

Mzanzi Organics is a social enterprise focusing on small scale pocket farming in & around Cape Town. We provide organic produce and seeds.

Mzanzi Organics assists in planting trees and setting up food gardens in urban spaces. We’ve introduced workers at a small factory in Epping Industrial to the benefits of growing your own vegetables. The workers are learning about the ecology through organic permaculture practices that benefit their health and wellbeing.

The workers come from communities where access to gardens and fresh produce can be challenging. One of our donors were seeking a way to make use of some open space and we suggested our co-creation project #imagineyournation. This falls in line with the UN’s Sustainable Development Goal 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities. Let’s make more work spaces look like this!
