Enaleni Farm is a 10ha agro-ecological farm, located between Pietermaritzburg and Durban, 7km from the N3. The farm is a working example of the celebration and diversity of heritage breeds – of which many are indigenous – including domesticated animals with interesting histories and stories in South Africa that are farmed with compassion and non-mutilation.

Enaleni is a leading edge Pop-up farm visit and eating experience where guests get to explore the politics of taste and appetite as well as our food diversity. Food grown, harvested and transformed from a 350m radius of your table.

It’s a responsible way of eating local, with fewer food miles, zero post-harvest treatments and packaging. It’s fresh, healthy, clean, paged with stories of heritage, origin and cultivation, most of it hand prepared and celebrates a remarkable diversity of food and creativity.

Cropping In summer we grow soya and traditional maize varieties that are certified GMO-free, i.e.they are not genetically modified. We also grow a variety of legumes, cucurbits and vegetables. We save our own seed. A pair of donkeys are used for animal traction along with hand implements for planting and land preparation. Animal manures, liquid manure, green manures, crop residues and rotations all form part of our cropping system.
