Mandela Day 2026: Official Launch of the Patch-Up South Africa Community Agriculture School

Join Patch-Up South Africa as we commemorate Mandela Day 2026 through the official launch of our Community Agriculture Farm in Mamelodi East—the first milestone towards establishing Mamelodi's first Community Agriculture School.

This initiative is more than a farm. It is a long-term investment in food security, skills development, environmental sustainability, and economic empowerment. The Community Agriculture School will provide practical agricultural training, promote sustainable food production, and create opportunities for unemployed youth, vulnerable families, and aspiring community farmers to build resilient livelihoods.
