THE SOUTH AFRICAN WINE INDUSTRY IS CLOSED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.

I have asked you before, and now the industry that is entrenched in my soul is on its knees; I am BEGGING you. Help SAVE THE SOUTH AFRICAN WINE INDUSTRY.

Tonight our wonderful president Cyril announced the alcohol ban will continue until at least 15th February. There is no point complaining. Our government isn’t listening, they don’t care about all the families depending on the sale of alcohol. They don’t care about my family, about my colleagues families, about the families of all those I love and respect in this amazing industry, or those who they employ. The retailers, the hospitality industry... so many are dependent on wine sales.

It is not the wine industry’s fault that South Africa has a drinking problem, they are not the cause and they should not be penalized.

The government has made a lazy decision to blanket ban alcohol rather than look at how to rectify the issues at hand.

Sorry I’m ranting. How can you help?

- if in South Africa, support your favourite farms; buy as much as you can online. The farms & the wine merchants need cash flow for their on going expenses.

To the rest of the world, we are relying on your support. Please drink your local supplier dry of South African wine so they can order more, and the wineries can sell some of their stock on hand and make space for the 2021 harvest that is about to start.

To everyone else please share this post far and wide. Tell your friends. Help us please. The South African wine industry needs you.

Any recommendations needed please ask. Happy to assist in any way I can.

What an honour to live next to this human being.
Local hero Se moer.
Lizette is our neighbour and she has a green finger to boot.
She grows anything from chillis to basil to parsley to aubergines. You don’t go there to ask for a cup of sugar you go to ask for parsley, chilies and whatever she is growing.

What is so awesome about her?

You can just pop by unannounced she will always welcome you with open arms.

She is always willing to hear about your growing veggie patch and will part with invaluable advice always.

And then she is always willing to learn. Asked what she should do with broad beans she’s been growing. That was funny.

What I really enjoy about her is that it always ends up being a cross contamination of knowledge.

This is woman power

Follow us, order our meal boxes soon and discover some more of what this amazing woman has to offer.

Some food for thought...

Is cooking at home more sustainable than eating out? From ingredients to energy to food waste, explore if home-cooked meals are more eco-friendly.

Feels like a rocket Friday🤣

Come explore the delights the Breede Valley has to offer.

Capetonians, we are only an hour and 10min away, closer than Hermanus ne and we might not have the ocean, but we have the mighty Breede Rivier and Quagga Kloof Dam.

The lineage of food rooted in more than 350 years of exile and slavery – its connections and disconnections, presence and absence – can be traced from the Malay Archipelago to Cape Town.

South Africa is in a crisis. Our wine industry, our restaurants,our tourism . All the industry directly or indirectly connected- the domino effect too terrible to think about.
Please support us all in any way you can. We thank the many of you who have always been there, we reach out to our international friends to raise awareness. Let us save our people, let us save our industries,let us save South Africa.
