This Couple Built the Only Certified Organic Farm in Soweto — Here's What They Earn
In the middle of Soweto, South Africa, a husband and wife team built the only certified organic farm in the area — and they're using rabbit waste, food scraps, and community urine to grow food that sells for thousands of rands per harvest. Gregory and Gladys Mkhize run the Siyoyisile Indlala Community Farming Project: a 100% certified organic, regenerative farm producing vegetables, herbs, rabbit meat, pig products, and high-value farm inputs — and teaching their entire community to do the same. What you'll learn: ✅ The deep trenching technique that keeps soil fertile for 15+ years — without buying a single bag of fertilizer ✅ How they turn rabbit poo, urine, food waste, and cardboard into free, high-NPK farm inputs ✅ Real product prices on this farm: Rabbit urine (R32/bottle), Rabbit poo (R500/50kg), Rainbow Maize seeds (R6,000/10kg), Rabbit meat (R300/rabbit) ✅ The community exchange system: bring 20L of urine or food waste, get R5 off your produce ✅ Vertical farming with "Week Trays" — how to grow food with zero space ✅ How they secured a 99-year lease with a local school for long-term land stability ✅ Their plan to replicate this model across South Africa within 5 years🌿 Farm: Siyoyisile Indlala Community Farming Project | Location: Soweto, South Africa Certification: PGS & SAOSO Certified Organic Real farms.
