Awareness of Health-Improving Foods

About Us

Fact: there are more health and diet challenges than ever before in our country. From diabetes to obesity, heart disease, hypertension, and digestive disorders, the impact of our unbalanced lifestyles is staring us right in the face.

The good news is that there is more drive than ever to get back to a wholesome, organic, and natural way of eating, but, with so much information out there, it can feel like you’re trying to navigate a maze. That’s where we come in.

Since 2018

Bridging the Gap Between Farmers and Consumers

Since 2018, Abundance Wholesome Foods has been the missing link between organic small-scale farmers and customers, through our online store we sell organic certified fresh produce. We provide market access to farmers, and convenience to households through our weekly deliveries.

Abundance Alchemist

I’m Siyabonga Mngoma

I am passionate about wholesome, fresh produce and raising awareness about foods that improve one’s health. As a result of my health journey and losing loved ones to lifestyle illnesses, I started Abundance Wholesome Foods, selling organic fresh produce to people looking for convenient ways to make their lives healthier.

I believe wholeheartedly that so many illnesses can be prevented by making healthy life choices, so working towards changing people’s attitudes towards food and contributing to minimum environmental negative impact is what motivates and inspires me. I believe in the power of food medicine! As a by-product of my learnings, I decided to launch the Abundance Wholesome Foods blog so that I can further spread the word and hopefully change lives for the better.

My Personal Journey

While it’s still a struggle at times, my balanced lifestyle, healthy eating choices, positive affirmations, and health program have kept illness away. I’ve also created an indoor jungle in my apartment with over 35 tropical and exotic plants, and I believe this daily interaction with nature enhances one’s quality of life.

The potential to build efficient food systems in South Africa, and be fit within a startup and part of the dynamic organic foods sector is very exciting to me, and I’m thrilled to have you along for the journey. At this stage in my life, there is nothing more satisfying than providing a basic, nutrient-rich organic food to my community and working towards saving our planet.
