Khayelitsha Brothers Turn Invasive Water Hyacinth Into A Feel Good Business
Story 3
Khayelitsha brothers Siyanda and Akhona Sopangisa are turning invasive water hyacinth from the Blowy wetland into biochar, a soil additive that helps gardens retain water and nutrients.
German non-profit organisation Char2Cool trained the brothers to make biochar, helping them turn an environmental problem into a business selling the product and vegetable seedlings.
Their gardening project has established 46 home gardens and secured a one hectare plot at Sinako High School. The brothers hope to expand production and create jobs for unemployed residents.
