An important part of nature in rural South Africa is the use of the land. A lot of people have home gardens, where they grow tomatoes, onions, spinach, potatoes and squash. Fruit trees are also very common. My host family grows mangos, avocados, peaches, papayas, lemons, gauavas, pomegranates and bananas! The fruits and vegetables are so delicous and fresh!
We are now harvesting onions and papayas! Soon, my favorite fruit, mangos, will be ready to eat.
