Volunteers from the Kwa-Zulu Natal community came together to celebrate Nelson Mandela’s legacy on Mandela Day. They transformed the new Agricultural Hub building into a vibrant and welcoming space for the 244 farmers enrolled in the Thanda Organic Farming programme. They also planted 24 indigenous trees around the Community Centre, which in time will provide shade for the children, youth and adults visiting Thanda. See more photos from the day here!
