Fermier

Fermier is an attempt to create a restaurant which in future can become completely self-sustainable by creating an entire “ecosystem” from the fish and vegetables to the livestock, that suits our idea of responsible, conscientious farming (and restaurant) where even “waste” is turned into a functional part of the cycle.

In keeping with the idea of responsible involvement , the building has grown “organically” where soil from the area has been used to build  rammed earth walls, poles as the skeleton and recycled wood for the cladding and doors, thus creating a “farm feel”. To complete the feel, all the crockery, tables and chairs have each been designed and handmade by artisans from the Karoo Yard. Elza designed and made the crockery from her pottery studio and the carpenter, Dawie, crafted the tables and chairs.
As for the menu, the idea is to close the gap between produce, farm, and the final product. Guests can see the produce growing, where it comes from and the versatility of each product. We strive to involve producers with the same philosophy about produce and create a dining experience where not only the tender cuts are used, but rather the whole animal (head to tail cooking). This will be created around the season and what we can grow and our ability to serve it in a fresh and exciting way.
