During the first few weeks of the Covid-19 pandemic / National lockdown level 5 in South Africa, Tharina and her husband Pieter realised that it might be ages before the market can be fully operational again, so they decided to take the market online.

We stock a whole variety of local produce and homemade products from real local small businesses.

Due to various requests from regular customers we have also added other fresh produce products, which is not available in our direct area. We buy them in fresh from agents at the Cape Town Market. This way, we can provide our customers with an even bigger selection of fresh produce. We still strive to buy most of our fresh produce directly from local farmers and also prefer to support smaller farmers where possible.

Every first Saturday of the month, the Groenstoor in Brandwacht is the home of Pure Boland Market. With the most spectacular views over the Brandwacht vineyards and mountains, this is the perfect spot for your early morning cup of coffee with your family, or stay for delicious ‘roosterkoek’ straight from the fire. You can even enjoy some local craft beer and wine while listening to a local band performing background music.

Most of the products on our online store and more is available on market days. It is a great way to meet the entrepreneurs in person, after ordering online and having their delicious products delivered to your door on a more regular basis.

We also have occasional pop-up markets at local wineries and a few night markets during the summer months. Keep an eye on our Events page for upcoming pop-up and special markets; otherwise we’ll see you every first Saturday of the month at Groenstoor, come rain or shine!
