On This Weekend: The Constantia Country Living Craft Market

October 20, 2006 |  by  |  Markets - Food & Crafts, Things To Do  |  Share

Constantia Country Living MarketThis morning, posters lining the M3 into town reminded me that tomorrow is the date of the next Constantia Country Living Craft Market.

I’ve written about it before, but the first one was, unfortunately, cancelled because of a rather nasty September downpour, setting its debut back by a month.

However, the weather this weekend looks somewhat more amiable, so there’s no excuse to miss the new market that offers ‘classic crafts and food from the earth, for the body, mind and soul’.

The craft market has new (more sensible) times as well, starting at 9am instead of crack-of-dawn 8am, and running until 4pm. May as well get that there inevitable Christmas shopping in early this year.

Did I just say the ‘C’ word? Humblest apologies for any traumatic response that utterance may have caused.

The Constantia Country Living Craft Market will be held on the 3rd Saturday of every month at the Cape Academy (Firgrove Way, Constantia).

  1. Produce the Best Sprouts!
    Yes you Can!

    Technological Breakthrough.

    This Amazing Machine does all the work for you!
    The A40 and A 80. Produce tons of sprouts effortlessly.

    MANY OTHERS CAN ALSO BE SPROUTED

    Dear Sirs,

    Please allow us to introduce ourselves. We are Brian and Veena Berlein of B&V Distributors. We import and export goods to and from South Africa especially machinery.

    Recently we imported some seed sprouting machines. They are amazing. We have run extensive tests and found them to be remarkable in every way photos of the sprouts show. We are now confident to market them and are offering them to fresh produce growers.

    We have two models, A40 and A80.

    The A40 can produce up to 1000kg sprouts per week and the A80 double that.

    They come with full computerized controls which regulate the water cycle, the temperature and monitor growing conditions. All that needs to be taken care of is the packing of the produce. The bigger the sprout the greater the nutrition.

    We have limited stock and will not supply a machine to the same areas. If you are interested then please contact us. We will be able to send you an e-mail with pictures

    Best regards,

    Brian and Veena
