Quirky farm stalls

Pucketty Farm on the west side of Hlogoma Mountain is close to the village of Underberg, in the foothills of the Southern Drakensberg and it offers visitors a unique country style experience All the products are homemade. Baskets overflowing with fresh home baked pies, quiches, pates and puddings. There are locally made farm cheeses with […]

O’Hagen’s Sausages

[Edit] Closed after Covid but see them around now and again When Bill O’Hagen moved to England from South Africa in 1974, the English sausage had earned the dubious distinction of being the bin end of the market. They were stuffed full of rusk and scrap meat to keep costs down and looked as well […]

Biltong

Saturday market

A delicious hand made pattie with onion, garlic and soya sauce inside. Fresh lettuce, tomato and special California Sauce. All on a fresh bun. Everything is sourced locally and fresh.

There are naartjies, oranges, lemons […]

An artisan (from Italian: artigiano) is a skilled manual worker who makes items that may be functional or strictly decorative, including furniture, clothing, jewellery, household items, […]

Dassiesfontein

The restaurant at Dassiesfontein offer visitors generous portions of traditional Boerekos accompanied by a beer or a steaming hot cup of koffie. On most Saturdays diners can enjoy a local speciality, curried tripe, and on Sundays they offer a large buffet.

Florida farm stall

Stock up on farm butter and freshly baked loaves at the Florida Farm Stall while the kids feed the animals in the touch farm. You will also find waterblommetjies, venison pies, bokkoms (dried fish biltong), German sauerkraut, gourmet mustard, quail eggs and pickled garlic.
