Zimbabwe Umuntu Permaculture Projects

Zimbabwe Umuntu Permaculture Projects is organized to develop thriving permaculture gardens throughout Zimbabwe without the use of herbicides, insecticides or artificial fertilizers. I visited one of the organization’s primary projects in Mt. Darwin, central Zimbabwe, in March 2022, and was impressed with the size, scope and successes being achieved at the Mt. Darwin site under difficult conditions in Zimbabwe. Over the past two years I have made donations that helped to provide fencing and livestock for the site. You can help as well.

Please make your donations via Paypal, zimprojects100@gmail.com, c/o fundraising organizer Adam Waterhouse.

Contact me on this site if you have any questions. Thank you.
