Sustainability is our way of life, which is reflected in many ways, including our platinum certification for sound employment practices - recognition we are very proud of. Beyond our farm, we’ve expanded our recycling and waste management programs to benefit the entire Citrusdal community.
I have been farming since my mid-twenties (now in my fifties), in 2008 I transitioned to organic farming. Inspired by Masanobu Fukuoka's natural farming principles, we introduces indigenous plants from the Cape Floral region into our orchards, to enrich the soil and nourish the citrus trees naturally.
Lots and lots of life in the soil, is my secret to the production of our beautiful produce.Our commitment to regenerative agriculture has resulted in healthy, productive orchards with minimal pests, while also fostering a thriving ecosystem where birds, insects, and even predators like caracals coexist in harmony.
