Giba Organics is an organically based sustainable food farm which has been designed and developed for a multiple of reasons. Primarily it has been designed to act as a demonstration food farm using sustainable and organic practices and products that are applicable for use by Government, Ngo’s, Corporates, clinics, schools and any client who is involved with uplifting communities and enabling them to become self sufficient using environmentally sustainable products.
Their raised vegetable beds are open for the public to pick whatever Organically grown Veggies and Herbs are ready at any given time. How it works is you will be assigned an assistant who will walk around with you carrying a basket and scissors, you will be advised what is ready for picking, either your assistant can pick the veggies for you or they can show you how (there are different techniques for different veggies!) Once you have had your Herb and Veggie Fix your assistant will weigh the veggies for you and you pay for them just as if you were at a supermarket.
Do note that certain veggies and Herbs are seasonal so please don't expect us to have everything on our price list ready for picking all the time, the list is an indication of what we will grow over the year.
There is little or no carbon footprint due to no food miles been used in getting the produce to the shop, what you see is what you get. Everything used to grow that vegetable is for sale from our retail centre – this includes the tools, seed packs, compost, worm farms, organic fertilizers and sprays etc.
