Dennegeur Avenue Primary School - EduPlant Finalist 2023

Dennegeur Avenue Primary School (Western Cape) stands out as an EduPlant participant that has been both creative and effective in using their space and resources. The school clearly demonstrates the use of various permaculture zones and mapping, has utilised windbreak techniques and implemented drought planning. The garden is exceptionally well laid out and the production area has tripled in size from 313 m² to 939m² in just over a year. The learners proudly harvest around 5kg of fresh produce from their garden every week. Currently they are intercropping with the likes of beans, beetroot, broccoli, cabbages, cauliflower, chard, fruit trees, and even strawberries.
