We will have some farm fresh fun at Mooihoek Strawberry Farm and Berry Barn. Time on the farm to pick strawberries and select your own treats fresh from the earth! We will then take our pickings and fashion them into a healthy breakfast, jam, milkshake or smoothie. Another open air experience to which we will add a twist to learn and master a new life skill.
We will have the opportunity to join the professional beekeeper and experience the honey process from extraction to presenting the exquisite product! Under close eyes of the professional beekeeper and geared up in safety PPE, we will observe extraction from the hives in their natural habitat inside the Pabala Nature Reserve. You will be exposed to honey harvesting, experience the way honey is made and why it can have various undertones like citrus, fynbos, plum, aloe and so forth.
The centre applicants will experience nature up close and personal with guided walks through the Kabeljouws Nature Estuary, accompanied by experienced guides in the unmarked all natural terrain.
