N'Rougas Farm

A Regenerative Recap 26.01.2023

We finally have the stock and the facility to deliver lamb from our farm to your table in Johannesburg
FIRST DELIVERY : 8 FEBRUARY 2023 
Most of you do not know us or our story , so I would like to give it to you here in a nutshell.
We farm using predator friendly and regenerative techniques. The sheep are shepherded by day and kraaled by night, allowing the jackals and caracals to live with us on the farm, performing their important roles in the local ecosystem.
To regenerate the soil we use Savory’s Holistic Management system – our shepherds move the sheep in grazing patterns that are designed to simulate natural migration of the wildlife that used to roam here. The trampling hooves of our flock moving together works the manure and dead plant material back into the soil, creating a fertile seed bed and allowing the rain to be more effectively absorbed into the soil instead of running off and causing erosion. This, along with carefully planned recovery time for the plants while the sheep are elsewhere, means that we will soon see regeneration in biodiversity, plant matter and soil health. This allows us to capture greater quantities of Carbon in the soil.
