On the 23 of January 2013 Dr Naudé Malan, Kyle Brand and I visited a second group of urban farmers who grow vegetables in Noordgesig, on the southern outskirts of Soweto. Their ingenious solutions to technological problems was exceptional, my favourite example was the farmers’ use of old mattress spring substructures as fencing for crop security. The ingenuity of such a choice was the ease of access to old mattresses and the fact that the spring substructure worked as a good fence preventing crop theft but without the risk of the metal being stolen for scrap.
