Anna Boois, Namaqualand, Northern Cape. 20 September 2003

Anna Boois, goat farmer, with her birthday cake and vegetable garden, on her farm Klein Karoo in the Kamiesberge of the Northern Cape. She was one of 14 people - all women - who had been given land in this area under a government scheme. About a year after this photograph was taken her source of water dried up and she abandoned her farm and went to live in Garies, the nearest village.
