We will be having 8 small business's trading thier hand-made hemp items, proudly presenting Hemp from fabrics, hemp body products,hemp nutritional supplements, foot wear, Hemp Art, to clothing made on the premises out of 100% Hemp fabrics. We will be showcasing 4 sewing machines and do silk screening on site for the clothing. Hemp presentations will also be on display giving you more details into the wonderful process of turning Hemp into only a few of the 50000 uses it has and whats happening on the Hemp scene in South Africa. For more information about our Hemp Village please send an email to info@africanspaza.co.za and we will gladly answer any questions you may have.

There seems to be quite a bake up shake up in the activism forum, so if you
are keen to be part of history and help in making a change, support your
local activists through their local websites, facebook groups etc.

Spring is around the corner, hope you are looking forward to the new growth
in your garden, warmer weather and the sun. Get those garden beds ready and
grow your own.
