Pickle and preserve summer’s abundance at Soetmelksvlei

Presented by Rina van Velden

Please meet us at the Babylonstoren ticket office

Only 10 spaces available

Grandma’s pickles and preserves are part of a new revival of eating seasonal food and minimising food waste. Join us in the heritage kitchen of Soetmelksvlei as we unpack this traditional South African practice.

Following a short ride along the picturesque slopes of Simonsberg, we’ll descend towards the historical farmyard of Soetmelksvlei, which represents a time when life was simpler and craftsmanship was treasured. Here, we’ll join Rina van Velden for a hands-on morning of making our own pickled and preserved foods.

After a hands-on morning in the farm air, we’ll enjoy a hearty lunch at the Old Stables Restaurant before heading back to Babylonstoren.
