KZN South Coast farm tours: A welcome boost for tourism

Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

In an effort to help boost tourism in the KwaZulu-Natal farmlands, Ugu South Coast Tourism (USCT) has launched its KZN South Coast Agri-CULTURE farm tours.

While most people pop down to the South Coast for a beachy getaway, Phelisa Mangcu, CEO of USCT says there’s much more to the KZN South Coast than just the beautiful beaches.

“This is such a wonderful initiative that is expanding the geographical footprint of the tourism offerings within the Paradise of the Zulu Kingdom,” she said.

She added that Ugu South Coast Tourism has worked closely with popular tourist establishments to structure the Agri-CULTURE Tours so that visitors are treated to a completely unique experience and quality service.

Six stops on the KZN South Coast Agri-CULTURE Tour

According to Tourism Update, there are six establishment on the Agri-CULTURE Tour:

1. BBS Farm (Southport)

BBS Farm is a proudly women-owned organisation that produces green peppers, bananas, tomatoes and macadamia nuts. Tours are available everyday, contact bbsfarm568@gmail.com for more details. Offerings on the farm include:

  • Farm tours showcasing the organically grown produce;
  • A tour of the hydroponic system that waters the world-class tomato selection;
  • A macadamia tour and
  • Fishing for carp, tilapia and bass at the dam.

Meet the co-owner of BBS Farm in Port Shepstone, KZN, Busisiwe Molefe. Her farm produces macadamia nuts and tomatoes. She's the first black woman to supply macadamias to Asia, China, Europe and US. She employed 27 permanent & 10 seasonal workers. Well done Mma Molefe …. 👏🏻 pic.twitter.com/HOjIUTM0oa
