Our Program

Attending our program might just be one of your best experiences ever. During your stay here we will get you to help out in as much hands on work as possible, as we believe that the best way to learn is by actually doing.

Your stay here would be a combination of hands on work infield, lectures and visits to places like Pumba Private Game Reserve, nature estates, livestock farms and other great South African places. Your course itinerary might change as some different and interesting things could pop up and one should be ready for any change.
