TENDING AND CLEARING SPACES

Over the past seven years, the 1-hour work period after breakfast has brought about a huge transformation at Emoyeni. In the early days it was clearing up scrap metal, hundreds of metres of barbed wire and piles of klipdrif bottles. Next was the head-high fields of kharkibos and blackjacks, and establishing the vegetable garden. Our focus this time will be on lantana eradication and other meditative tending.

We will be spending about four hours mindfully gardening or fixing things. There will also be periods of meditation practice and wandering about the Magaliesberg. Here is a chance to get out of the city and ground yourself in some sweaty, mindful work!
