Growth Pods Report
The project started on the 28 February 2018 with two elderly clients in Phola Park. These clients were provided with a short training on how to plant and care for vegetables using growth pods. On this day clients were assisted to plant spinach in the pods.
This project had a good impact on the older person’s life because:
- It does not need to be watered regularly
- It saves time and energy
- Weeds do not grow
- There is no need to plant from the soil
- It is easy to store
