Mentorship Feedback“The mentoring has been the best thing ever, Carmela has been great, she's helped us structure our business plan properly,
and we’ve even managed to get the city to support us because of her help. We've even started experimenting with a few
systems and have secured an area to build our first urban farm.” Khuleka Xaba
“Yes we have worked on sales and marketing, we now have a facebook page and a cellphone line for the business, we
secured a slot on a radio programme to intro ourselves to our market.” Mandilive Matiwane
“Mr Rob gave me tasks to actually go and create planting pockets myself so I'm almost done and I also did my research. So
I'm almost ready to set up another session with him” Kgotso Motla
“Yes the Company has been registered and am finalizing all the documents, am taking additional courses on pricing and
cost.” Talifhani Tshitwamulomoni
“ I looked at similar products on the market and found simpler methods for the targeted customers which meant
changing direction.” Kanya Sizwe Pakati
