We spent the first night in our farm cottage after leaving Cape Town, but after all the hard work of packing and moving, now comes the bigger task of unpacking too much stuff for our tiny cottage. A lot of stuff is going to be donated...

We relocated our family from Pretoria to Cape Town in December 2022. Two years later we are leaving Cape Town, but this time we have a really good feeling about it. #homesteading

We often send fertile quail and chicken eggs over long distances. Because quail eggs are so much smaller than chicken eggs, they don't fit in the standard tray. I have come up with my own solution to keep them safe.

Can you courier fertile eggs across South Africa? Yes you can.

In our area of the Western Cape the soil is very sandy and hydrophobic, so it's a challenge to grow anything. We have a strategy to remedy the situation.

Buti Malinga, a pig farmer from Northwest, sat down with us and we discussed what it takes to be successful. The very farm that he is operating on is where his parents were once farm workers when he was a kid.

If you are buying a car through @WeBuyCars_SA for the love of all that you hold dear, don't let them use @FinanceMarquis Marquis Finance. We have been struggling for nearly a month to get an up-to-date statement, daily calls, daily emails, no-one with a functioning brain in sight

@LouisNel Never a problem here, work from home with backup power. Some times my backup power runs out and everything is dead. When power comes back it just boots up and we're going again. Vuma fibre line, Cool Ideas ISP, Cape Town.

Let’s all be water wise this summer.

Cape Town, average water use over the past week has been 978 million litres per day (MLD), higher than our current target. Let’s all work together to collectively use less than 950 MLD.

Our chickens roam freely in the yard during the day. Our dogs and cat don't bother them much, in fact they help to herd the chicks to put them in their brooder for the night. https://t.co/7g1bAqRUaZ

I visited a wine and wheat farm in the Stanford region of the Western Cape recently. This is the 2 hour road trip back to Cape Town through Caledon, up Houwhoek Pass, past Grabouw, down Sir Lowry's Pass, and into Cape Town, stopping at Milnerton Lagoon. https://t.co/VLrvmx18uR
