“After my training, I knew I had to register my own company and comply with the red meat regulations to grow as a business,” she said.
The young lady now mentors and trains students from Tompi Seleke College of Agriculture and Tshwane University of Technology (TUT). She also trains recovering substance-abuse addicts who want to learn about farming.
“Helping recovering addicts is my way of giving back to the community, as it is this community that supports our business,” she said.
Nomathemba explains that she was inspired to take on the farming industry because of her dad who greatly motivated her, Food For Mzansi reported.
“My dad taught me that not everything in life has to be about you, it is possible to put other people first. When he bought this farm, it was not about him, but about us, and the community we serve,” she said.
