The Lismore Farm is old and established, having been in the Barry family since 1844. The farm has an illustrious history and when you’re visiting  it can be riveting listening to how it was once used as a horse breeding farm for the Dutch East India Company and other interesting facts.

Today the farm is used for dairy and and you’ll find Jersey cows as well as a Nguni herd. The farm is also a member of the Groot Vaders Bosch conservancy which is wonderful as certain farms see to it that the wildlife of the area is preserved. The area also practices sustainable agriculture production.
