Boschendal 

Aside from wine tasting, you can explore the estate on foot, by bike or horseback. Take a tour of the farm and learn about their sustainable gardening practices or browse the exhibits at the Boschendal X Brundyn art gallery.

Of the 1,800 hectares, around 800 are dedicated to conservation where they’ve restored river flows and allowed the flora and fauna to flourish undisturbed. They are pioneering regenerative farming that doesn’t just sustain the soil but strategically replenishes it by nourishing the soil with live roots, planting indigenous and diverse crops, and encouraging their livestock – cows, sheep and chickens – to freely graze and essentially sequester carbon into the earth. They also support their local community and those who work on the estate can send their children to the pre-school located on the farm. They also regularly run supplies to the neighbouring educational centres.

For families, children aged 4 to 12 years can play in the Tree House Playground or try out supervised activities such as foraging, mud craft and gardening with chickens. For older children there is a mountain biking pumping track.
