Vision and Goals

At our core, we treat our land as a living system, meaning that we only engage in practices that contribute to the rehabilitation and regeneration of the veld and its diverse species. Our animals play a crucial role in this process, helping to enhance the land while providing products for us to sell, trade, and sustain ourselves.

We transform grazing and crops that might otherwise harm the environment into activities that build it up. Our pure-bred goats, chickens, and other animals, along with their feed and our food crops, are all part of our plan to conserve this land for ourselves, future generations, and the wildlife that calls it home. When our animals and crops produce a yield, we offer these products to you, helping to put food on our table and yours. This is the small-scale, regenerative, and biodiverse system we strive to live by—and we generate income from it whenever possible.

Our animals are raised in an environment where they can thrive, eat well, and be happy, regardless of their intended purpose. We believe in the principle: Respect sown, respect harvested.

We breed our animals responsibly, with different goals in mind. Our indigenous goats are carefully managed to preserve this remarkable breed. We experiment with various chicken breeds to find the right fit for the right time and place. Alexia’s Border Collies are renowned for their fantastic temperament and striking looks; they are exposed to farm life, animals, and noise from a young age to ensure they are well-adjusted.

Rabbits: Due to the recent RHDV outbreak, we have paused our rabbit breeding program. Although we have not lost any rabbits, we prefer to avoid risks that could impact the wild rabbits and hares of the Klein Karoo.

Products, Services & Offerings

As a self-sufficient farm, our primary focus is on meeting our own needs. This allows us to generate a surplus that we can share with you and the community. Due to this approach, not everything is available all the time; when it is, it’s at the grade and level that we expect things to be.
Please let us know what you need, and we will do our best to check, plan, and assist you.
