Publisher's Synopsis
In 2012, a few volunteers took a neglected piece of land that was a sterile bowling green on the edge of the Cape Town inner city, and turned it into a productive urban food garden. Today the Oranjezicht City Farm has become so much more than that with food growing becoming a way to realise a much wider vision. This small educational non-profit project has hosted thousands of school children, and through its weekly farmer's market supports numerous small, local farmers, dozens of artisanal food purveyors and the hundreds of jobs they provide. Oranjezicht City Farm: Food Community Connection, tries to capture some of the stories about how this farm, and all the activities around it, came to be.
