Visiting the Farm

On your own

The Farm is open weekdays from 08h00 to 16h00 and Saturdays from 08h00 to 13h00 (closed on Sundays). If you want to wander around on your own, you are very welcome.

Guided Tours

Guided tours of the Farm are conducted by OZCF Volunteers. Please email visit@ozcf.co.za to arrange. Requested donations per person ranges from R60 – R100, but depends on the age, group size, duration of tour and whether any planned activities are included. Catering can also be arranged for larger groups.

School outings to the Oranjezicht City Farm

Nature as Teacher

The experience of seeing seed, soil, water and sun come together to transform into a tiny plant is a lesson in itself, and one not soon forgotten. Learning to appreciate the wonder and power of nature is the core of an environmental education at the Oranjezicht City Farm. A vegetable garden gives your school all the benefits mentioned above, with the added reward of valuable nutrition lessons on the importance and joys of eating fresh foods

School outings are conducted Tuesdays from 09h30 – 12h00.
Tours for school staff can also be arranged. Learners of all ages from grade R to grade 11 are welcomed.

Choose from a list of topics and we will tailor the content to the needs of the age group. Programme includes a practical, hands on experience and a guided tour of the farm. Specific areas of the syllabus can be covered.

The cost is R60 per learner. This fee can be reduced on application.

For a list of available topics, to book and for further information please visit the education section of our website.
