Eat, Grow, Love (2019)

Eat, Grow, Love is a series about stories of sustainable gardening in South Africa. Follow presenter Frances Tophill as she travels the country, visiting community gardens across Johannesburg and Cape Town designed to provide food security and skills development for the populations' poor. Frances will glean facts about the unique history of these gardens and their owners. Whether she is visiting hungry AIDS orphans gardening in plastic bottles and discarded car tires, bearded hipsters growing heritage vegetables on rooftops or clergymen feeding their flocks in the space between the church and its fence, there are lessons in eat, grow, love to be learned and incredible stories to be told. This series is part gardening, part sociology, part cooking and a whole lot of sharing.
