Our Commitment to Sustainability
At Random Harvest Country Cottages and Farm, sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. As providers of eco-friendly accommodation and advocates for sustainable and responsible tourism, we are committed to reducing our environmental impact through thoughtful and innovative practices. Whether you're visiting us for Muldersdrift accommodation or enjoying our serene surroundings, you can feel confident that your stay supports a greener future.
Our Sustainability Efforts
Environmentally Friendly Practices:
Wherever possible, we use environmentally friendly products, services, and energy-efficient appliances.
Waste Minimization and Recycling:
We actively minimize waste by separating recyclable components and encouraging recycling. Organic waste, along with paper and cardboard from our office, is converted into microbe-rich compost. This compost is used for growing plants in our on-site nursery, cultivating our gardens, and is also available for purchase by customers for their own gardens. Beyond reducing waste, we also clean up litter along the roads leading to Random Harvest Country Cottages, contributing to the health and beauty of the Muldersdrift area.
Energy Conservation and Carbon Emissions Reduction:
To minimize carbon emissions, we promote energy-saving practices and use solar energy to power our cottages and other processes on the property. For necessary transportation on-site, we use energy-efficient vehicles, further supporting our commitment to sustainable and responsible tourism.
Biodiversity Preservation:
We are dedicated to conserving the region’s biodiversity by protecting natural habitats for birds, plants, and other wildlife. Indigenous gardens are purposefully planted around our cottages and buildings to provide a haven for local species and offer our guests a unique opportunity to immerse themselves in nature.
Alien Plant Removal:
By actively removing alien invasive plants, we help preserve the natural beauty and biodiversity of Muldersdrift. As one of the few places in the area that has retained its original charm, we also work with neighboring communities to promote healthy property management practices, increasing our collective positive impact on the environment.
