We are determined to encourage self-sustainabilty in the local area, and hopefully across Malawi to. We have funded previous permaculture courses which has resulted in the local school having their own permaculture garden and feeding their students, and we have created a community garden on the local scout camp for the village to use.

The garden created at DMSS is still going strong, providing food for the school. However, the villagers were more reluctant to change their growing methods. Jaine then approached the Scout Association of Malawi for permission to use part of the grounds at Makwawa for a Community Permaculture Garden. The Garden was created during August 2018 and members of the Permaculture group are tending it and will be sharing the produce between them.
