Abba Rural Farming
#RestoreTheLandRestoreThePeople – ABBA Rural Farming Model is the backbone of the ABBA Model, and the agricultural component will see each project become Regenerative and GOD sustainable. Once an ABBA Farm is established it allows us to love on the community through the above ministries. It also allows us to Disciple those willing to be discipled and to multiply not only the Church but also Farmers.
We do things differently...
As part of the ABBA Rural farming model, we have been very focused on ABBA Ignite in Venterspos, West of Johannesburg, South Africa. ABBA Foundation has been entrusted with this 20-hectare farm, which we believe will become a centre of restoration, discipleship, and agricultural transformation for Africa. The vision is to create a living model that demonstrates how land, when stewarded correctly, can renew both communities and individuals. Through commercial citrus farming, highvalue vegetable production, poultry, honey, grain cultivation, and food preservation practices, the farm will showcase practical, sustainable agriculture that can be replicated across the continent. More importantly, it will serve as a place where African leaders, landowners, and emerging farmers can gather to learn, be equipped, and return to their communities with the tools and knowledge needed to create lasting change.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Abba Foundation?
Abba Embrace is a faith-rooted, purpose-driven organisation partnering with communities across Africa to co-create sustainable solutions in food security, education, healthcare, water access, and entrepreneurship.
How does Abba ensure that its work is regenerative?
We focus on long-term, community-led development. Every initiative – from bakeries to gardens to education programmes – is designed to equip people with skills, tools, and systems that build ongoing independence, not dependency.
How are donations used?
Funds directly support community programmes: container bakeries, community gardens, water wells, early childhood education, healthcare services, and relief projects, like “Buy a Bread Forward” and the “1 000 Days” campaign. We aim for maximum impact with clear, purpose-led allocation.
Can I choose which project my donation goes to?
Yes. You can direct your contribution to a specific ministry – Education, Healthcare, Gardens, Water Solutions, Urban Chickens, Relief, or Container Bakeries. You also have the option to allow us to channel it where the need is greatest.
Do you only work in South Africa?
No. While many programmes are rooted in South African communities, Abba Embrace partners across Africa to support local development, strengthen food security, and uplift families through sustainable solutions.
How do the Container Bakeries work?
Our bakeries operate from refurbished shipping containers, staffed by local community members. They produce hundreds of loaves daily, create income opportunities, and promote self-sustaining local economies.
What is the “Buy a Bread Forward” campaign?
It’s a community-driven initiative where patrons buy bread for a family in need. The funds also help reinvest in new community projects, supporting both immediate hunger relief and long-term growth.
