This micro enterprise village shows the benefits of building on synergies. Wood from a tree-felling business is used by another to make rustic furniture, while a working farm grows organic vegetables which are carried to nearby suburbs for sale there by horse and cart. Visitors can experience first-hand the simplicity of this old fashioned method of transport as they tour the model village. This aims to be the first urban eco-village in Cape Town with some really innovative interventions.
The village was created with the aim of establishing a working model of a sustainable eco-village and to encourage an environment of respect and consideration for people, nature and diversity.
There are a number of buildings that are of historic interest - a vegetarian restaurant is located in one that has been renovated.
