Well Monday was a bright breezy morning to be off on our trip to talk in Ladismith!
Dropped off first in Napier and picked up some stock and had a tasty lunch with Beau and the family before going over the mountains back on to the R62.
Ladismith is a sleepy yet, busy little town -so pretty- and friendly. We had a lovely evening meal at the local restaurant with Johan and Anika of the Ladismith Eyes. Then flopped into our brass antique bed at the lovely old Guest House - Albert Manor built in 1842- lovely old national monument.
The lady of the house made sure we had an extra warm blanket and electric under blanket. We slept like two stones and were awake next day to have a talk with the locals about 'pure products and our African Botanical Range" it was a great success and went away with a warm heart from a lovely warm and friendly village.
Ladismith has our Pure Olive and Kigelia Range at the beautiful Art Gallery called the Ladismith Eyes owned and run by Johan and Anika. When you are passing through on the R62- go in and have a warm cup of coffee and a slice of the best carrot cake in the province and maybe purchase one of Anika's fantastic glass creations or a painting from the area.
The Olive and Kigelia Range looks lovely next to the other products made in the area. Truly a lovely experience.
