PAST Riversands Farm is a beautiful piece of land rich with history and stories. It all started in 1947 when Granny LeMay started making her homemade chicken pies and sold them on the side of William Nicol Drive ( which was still a dirt road in those days ) As time went on the farm grew into one of the first and most famous free range chicken farms in SA, there was also a dairy. With the growth of Fourways in the last 15 years, people needed a place to enjoy the outdoors and get away from the hustle and bustle of the city so the animals moved and the face of the farm changed. PRESENT Our first event in 2001, took a journey back in time to celebrate Medieval Times, where we once had knights on horseback jousting to win over their fair maidens !! Since then we have hosted some big music events like, Coke Zero Fest, Ram Fest, 94.7 JHB day to name a few, where 28,000 people enjoyed the likes of Snow Patrol, Oasis, The Parletones, Prime Circle to name a few. For the outdoor and sport lovers we hosted the XTreme Outdoor Expo, and have even had smaller events like Easter egg hunts for children in the forest, a Shebeen, Fairy Festival and so much more ‌. The farm is popular as a venue for movies shoots due to its rich history and rural beauty.
FUTURE The future 13 we are offering is a glimpse into the past by giving you a farmstyle experience. We are going green and organic !
