This pictures tell the story of a group of San ( formerly known as Bushmen) making a living on Namibian Government Resettlement Farm. Farm Uitkoms is home to about 480 individuals, the government gave the 7-thousand hectare farm to them about 5 years ago. Since then the people under Chief Katae August getting into the moves and grooves of farming, and being self sustained, yet they lack farming knowledge, mechanical equipment, veterinary services and above all good advice. I paid them a visit during August 2011,,and then again February 2012, and I was pleasantly surprised to see the progress with little resources,,I vowed to follow their progress and keep you posted on this beautiful San people.
