*** More about the Green Guerrillas Group
The Green Guerrillas Group are a revolutionary, progressive movement that believes in using waste for energy; the mechanics of tourism for momentum; and the ethos of sustainability; so as to adapt to a rapidly changing environment. The Green Guerrillas don’t play by the rules, are guided by nature, and believe in a collective approach to sustainability. 15 souls from different backgrounds and cultures, we are not political, religious or racially-motivated. Our revolution is against our own complacency and we lead by taking action.
The GGGroup is a thought-provoking biodynamic farming and tour operating business that harvests organic waste, nurtures and sells earthworms, and promotes alternative views on urban sustainability and sustainable travel. By using (amongst other platforms) the mouthpiece of tourism, the mechanics of entrepreneurship, and the ethos of sustainability, the Green Guerrillas are on a mission to spread the good news about the environment, Southern Africa and organic growing with worms.
