The Shamba Project

Promoting Cultural inclusive vegetable produce for the wellbeing of underprivileged and nature disconnected families..
The aim of Shamba project was to help underprivileged families and isolated women to;

(1) connect with nature
(2) increase understanding and engagement of outdoor activities
(3) promote inclusion and physical social and emotional wellbeing.

We are proud that through Community funds we  were able to raise awareness of food inclusion through promotion of green vegetables that are more consumed by most of people from Sub-Saharan African continent (Mchicha, Matembele, Mnavu, Sukumaweek and Pamkin leaves). We were able to feed 117 families.
