A new aeroponic tower gardenis aimed at improving social health and providing essential nourishment to clinic patients in need. The farm has been established in Isipingo in Durban, to provide patients with sustainable nutrition, promoting medication adherence and overall well-being. Patients and the community around the Isipingo Clinic are set to benefit from a newly launched Aeroponic garden aimed at ensuring that patients on medication have access to sustainable nutrition to promote adherence to their treatment plans.
It's easy to overlook the importance of a hearty, nutritious meal when it's something we have in abundance. Unfortunately, for many struggling families in Isipingo, access to such meals is a luxury. Projects like these are crucial in providing the essential nourishment that patients desperately need.
By providing access to nutritious food and supporting social connections, these initiatives help to reduce poverty, prevent disease, and create a more equitable and sustainable future for all. Various organizations support the project. According to the eThekwini Municipality, the state-of-the-art garden is a significant positive step towards social health and food security made possible through partnerships with the Aids Healthcare Foundation, the Department of Agriculture and the City's Agro Ecology Unit.
