Professor Michael Rudolph of the University of the Witwatersrand School of Dentistry has a passion for promoting healthier living through the food we eat.

He is the director and founder of The Wits Siyakhana Initiative “promoting healthier communities” through growing fresh vegetables and fruit in its gardens.

Siyakhana embraces the permaculture ethic of not only selling the produce through box schemes, but also through distributing surplus food to the needy.

Children from Torah Academy Primary School recently visited the Siyakhana Initiative and learnt about the food gardens with a view to establishing a sustainable partnership between the school and Siyakhana.
