Bhekinkosi Mthimkhulu joined ACAT in 2022 when he learned that he could use deep trenches to plant vegetables as they have a water problem in his area. Now he grows spinach, cabbage, carrots, pumpkins, beans, etc. In his first harvest, he was able to eat and sell the surplus to his community. He says,
“I thank God for sending ACAT to open my eyes and show me that even though our area is dry, we can use moisture preserving methods to plant our crops. Many people used to buy their vegetables in the supermarkets, but now they buy them from my garden.”
