This was one of our first activities, taking place between May and September 2014.
We started by cleaning up the loads of accumulated waste, plastic bottles and organic matter which accumulated over years of neglect.
The real gardening took place in Summer in the blistering hot weather however it was an interesting and fun experience. Together with young volunteers from the SJAF*, we planted Aloe Vera around the perimeter of the garden; Pruned trees; took out weeds and watered the garden frequently.
Unfortunately, our resources were limited and with lectures and school-responsibilities taking over our time, we had to let go of this project, however, we are planning to continue working on it in the future.
