Wat 'n wonderlike gesig om die blomtrein te sien! Toe ons die fluitjie hoor op 'n Sondag middag, toe sping ons almal in die bakkie en jaag treinspoor toe. Gelukkig vir ons het hy gestop en kon ons 'n paar fantastiese foto's neem.

We just finished planting wheat. The weather untill now has been perfect, and the weather is  holding up till the last seed is put into the ground. We have planted more wheat this year than in the past and all went well, no major breakdowns. Now we hope for a bit of rain and all wil be green by the end of next week!!

German tourgroup visited Rondomskrik

21/2/2012

A tourgroup from Your Africa Travel (www.yourafrica.co.za)  visited Rondomskrik on 10 February 2012. We had a wonderfull time showing 50 German tourists form Bavaria around our farm.  With the help of their tourguide Pia Huppertz we gave them information about wheat farming and grape farming in the Swartland, as well as sheep and cattle farming. We showed them around our farm yard, saw lots of farm implements and tractors in the various sheds. We ended the visit with some refreshments in the garden. We even arranged for Willie van Schoor from Nulaid to give a very informative talk about the neighbouring chicken farm.
I would like the thank Swartland Municipality for sending Tyrone, our international exchange student, to help with some translation and welcoming our visitors.
It is great to share our farm life with these visitors.

Oestyd het aangebreek in die Swartland! Die buurman het teen 'n groot spoed met sommer klomp stropers in een kamp weggetrek. Ons het ook vandag begin koring stroop na 'n paar dae van stilsit omdat die koring nog te nat was na hierdie naweek se reën.

Vintage tractors on the Agri-Route

12/9/2011

2 Comments

 
We had a great Agri-route day on Saturday. We decided to join our guests for lunch at Spekulasie and drove there with our two vintage tractors. Nelius and the kids on his new 1960 John Deere 730 and me on my Massey Ferguson 35. With hats and sunglasses we were armed against all types of flying insects that may (and did) cross our path!
We had a great trip and will do the same next winter.
