The Skhaftin Bus is a mobile grocery store that aims to provide low-cost food and promote plastic-free shopping. Over six days, it made its way from inner-city Johannesburg to its new home in Grassy Park, Cape Town. Here is a diary of the trip in one place.
Day Two — ‘If we don’t plant our own food we are going to starve’
Day Three – ‘It should be everybody’s responsibility to keep the planet clean’
Day Four — Mobile grocery store model is addressing our reliance on plastic packaging
Day Five: Monetising waste gives communities an extra incentive to recycle
