FARMER REDBEARD
Hands on harvest and farming on
traditional fruit and wine farm
in Ashton, Breede River Valley,
Western Cape, South Africa
Hands-On Farming
During the summer months, Farmer Redbeard harvests his fruit orchards and
vineyards. So those budding fruit farmers, vintners and wine aficionados can
have the chance to experience the magic of the harvest without having to quit
their day job. This working holiday is ideal for team building or year- end
functions, family and school leaver's holidays.
Wellness Day/ Weekend
Come restore your balance in the privacy and quietness of our farm cottages or
in the original farmhouse, built in the 1700's, called DieOuHuis. This is a
place of healing. Enjoy a daily massage, a sunset farm drive and wine tasting.
Explore the life in the vineyard and fruit orchards.
Farm Activities
Participate in bee-keeping, and honey making; or join Farmer Redbeard's wife for
a cooking class, where traditional South African preserves, jams or soap can be
made. Enjoy our honey, the local cheeses and olive oil with a glass of wine.
Explore the Cape fynbos, birdlife and buck on foot, bicycle or from a tractor
ride into the mountain. Listen to the stories of the Anglo boer war and the
history of the farm being echoed from the Langeberg mountain and told by Farmer
Redbeard himself around a campfire...
