he success of the estate’s holistic method
can be attributed to the open-minded
and creative approach of proprietor
Johnathan Grieve, whose thirst for knowledge is
unquenchable.
On the 300-year-old family-owned farm in
the Klein Drakenstein Mountains, no life form is
considered “bad”, and nothing is eradicated. On
the contrary, Grieve strives to create conditions
that are conducive to more life. “Biodiversity, or
the variety of life in an ecosystem, is a tangible
measure of the health and balance of a particular
habitat,” he explains. “It’s important because each
species, from the lowliest microbe to a human
being, plays a distinct role in keeping the planet
running smoothly.”
