Elgin Orchards is the only wine farm on the western side of the Elgin Valley plateau to become a BWI Champion. They have dedicated 116ha of their Oudebrug farm to conservation.
The Palmiet riet (reed) growing in the Elgin area acts as a filtering system, naturally cleansing the water, and creates a lively ecosystem, creating a home for amphibians, insects, birds, reptiles and fish species.
Wine tasting: The farm is not directly open to public. Wines can be tasted through: Elgin Vintners, 19 Appletiser Road, Elgin, 7160.
