Applying permaculture principle No 4;Obtain a yield - Bill Mollison says: "The yield of a system is theoretically unlimited (or only limited by the information and imagination of the designer)." So 'obtain a yield' is not something we do once, but is a design approach to how we farm, garden, run our homes and communities. Again, the possible number of uses of a resource within a system is mostly limited by the knowledge and imagination of the designer. You will see how this principle is similar, and different, to others concerning waste and energy.

Think of yields broadly. A yield does not have to be edible and does not even have to be tangible. Therefore, observing and recognizing potential yields is key. A chicken does not yield just eggs (and meat), but fertilizer and insulation, perhaps CO2 for plants, and even companionship, warmth, and love. Compost does not just yield fertile organic matter; it can also yield heat for a hot bed or a greenhouse

We need donations of plumbing materials, electrical installation, water Harvesting tanks, garden tools, carpentry tools. We need vunteers who are passionate with plants, nature, farming, healing and field work.

Arcosud is implementing a number of holistic Healthcare programs including the community permaculture training and demonstration center, soup kitchen for the traumatized, addiction recovery program and nutrition for those suffering from chronic degenerative diseases taking medications that require healthy eating.

Substance abuse in limpopo has become a major challenge to the community. Lack of employment, industry and critical skills among the youth is exacerbating the problem. We are appealing for donations in cash or kind to help provide food, clothing and healing to these youngsters who have fallen victims of addiction but are will to commit themselves to behaviour change and recovery.

House of Rest Healing Sanctuary is a facility for Holistic trauma and addiction recovery. The program is implemented in Jane Furse, limpopo where Arcosud is helping victims of chronic degenerative diseases, trauma and drug addiction recover and heal holistically using natural herbs, nutrition and spiritual interactions. This is a place of safety, healing and empowerment for survivors of drug and behavioral addiction and a gateway to peace, neutrality, clarity and transformation. It is here where people affected by the above health challenges spent time and connect to the deepest part of themselves. While they are here, they get opportunities to wonder in the therapeutic gardens, listen or make their own music, work in the kitchen. We educate them about trauma, addiction, lifestyle diseases and how drugs can affect their lives and the lives of their beloved ones.
Our holistic recovery and healing facilities also focus on helping our beneficiaries learn how to rely on themselves to stay sober, manage chronic diseases and process trauma.
