Introduction to MENNGOS programme activities in the Western and the Eastern Cape. We are a Not for Profit company,whose overall goal is to stimulate economic opportunity in organic food production and as an organisation to engage in trading activities that will bring about sustainability for the organisation and it’s programme! Engaging in partnering communities who have a specific need to grow their own vegetables,herbs and fruit ie. Promoting the growing of vegetables gardens to enhance health and wellness. Methodology is permaculture growing,making your compost to conserve waste of any bio-degradable item,using NO pesticides under any circumstances,saving seeds for re-planting. Finding solutions that are organic through research and consultation with our peers in South Africa. Encouraging recycling and up-cycling on every level to promote tenets of the green revolution to waste less and to use bio degradable cleaning products and organic local ingredients. We use and promote the use of recycled wood to make rabbit hutches,chicken runs and other useful items for the home or plants. To always encourage people and communities to start small and to contribute to meaningful ways of building a green life. To adapt and change until they find their niche which is comfortable in making the transition. Encouraging the support of small markets locally that sell organic produce,hand-crafted goods and clothes, arts and crafts and who make slow foods that are part of our culture and traditions that we are losing. We only work in small clusters to maximise limited financial resources and support to projects to ensure sustainability. We are a collective of people who share a committed goal through key objectives. We work independently and inter-dependently towards the over-arching goal of MENNGOS. to network with other communities and organisations who are involved with greening South Africa and internationally. to facilitate access to technical skills development for organisations and groups involved in our specific organic food programme. are not to overcommit ourselves that we cannot commit necessary resources to our projects. to advocate and lobby when appropriate for access to land to grow and access to water which are necessary conditions to grow food. to advocate and lobby on behalf of individuals working with MENNGOS to gain resources that will stimulate business activity. to raise awareness on organic food production and its benefits to people and communities. to stimulate local economic activity and wellness, through markets, music and the growing of vegetables and the health and wellness sectors. to stimulate active economic activity through access to space and networking opportunities with stakeholders and role-players supporting small business activities. To engage with trading activities that will bring about sustainability for the organisation and its programme. We invite to join us as we intercede in prayer with The Right Reverend Michael Weeder, Dean of St. Georges Cathedral in Cape Town!
