Wear your Masks
ANTJIES
We have the funkiest face masks! At wow prices.
Our face masks are triple layer masks and have a comfortable elastic band fitting.
All face masks have a denim outer layer.
KIWINET
Kiwinet is excited to have partnered with Liezl Franken to produce masks to help slow the spread of COVID 19.
To keep the price as low as possible, Kiwinet is donating the fabric. Yes, some is off-cuts but there is a win-win here as it also reduces landfill. That good old fashioned saying, Waste not – Want not.
They are made with 3 layers of fabric, a soft inner cotton layer and an identifiable outer layer to ensure one wears it the right way round! They are made by our local seamstresses and tailors either at Kiwinet or at home - thereby providing an ongoing income to our staff and thus community.


Masks can now be purchased and collected at Ou Meul as well as at our Kiwinet factory from 8am - 5pm everyday. 
R25.00 each for plain & R 50.00 each of our Shweshwe masks. 
On THIS Weekend

Dates to Diarise
Bodhi Khaya Retreat

Earth School News
The Earth School at Bodhi Khaya is ready to present the first series of facilitated retreats. They are a timely invitation to open the way for gentle, yet radical transformation, in the ways we have been indoctrinated to work, relate, and co-habitate with Mother Nature. Each of these experiences are designed to soften the perceived divide between subject and object; between self and other.  

Emmanuel - Co - Facilitator
Emmanuel will offer insights into deeper knowledge about yourself. We will share techniques for deeper ways of communication and feeling heard. His calmness and innate state of being present, sets the tone in this space.
“You can trust that you will feel empowered to lead the life you truly want. No longer will you feel the need to be overly reliant on others for your well being, and you will leave Bodhi Khaya equipped to handle every possible challenge you are sure to meet along the way.”


Individual 7-Day Retreats
Inspired Transmutation Retreat is a rare opportunity to re-orient and re -find your inspiration. What or who may begin to re-emerge when feeling safely immersed in a natural biome of intact intelligence, and energetically cleansed by ancient trees and flowers, sweet mountain water, and highly oxygenated air?

This individual sessions start from 23 November 2020 to 13 December 2020.

SAWS RESCUE
NEVER SAY NEVER: DOG RESCUED AFTER MONTHS
SAWS is delighted. The road-running dog Zenzi (so named by road workers) seen criss-crossing the R43 between Hermanus and Stanford for many month, is safe.
SAWS chairperson Malcolm Bury was alerted to Zenzy’s plight in May. Rescue plans were made. Farmworker Casper Biningu, who knew where she hid, started putting food down on 7 June.
The SAWS catch cage was then set up but she avoided it.
A bigger cage was located. And then one morning … “Gotcha!”.
Zenzi is now at Syringa Country Kennels, basking in that exceptional care Malcolm is so well-known for
.

The system in place for pet food donations is as follows:
Leave pet food (dry) at allocated spaces at Overberg Agri Stanford or Stanford OK  Mini Market
Monetary donations to be paid into SAWS banking account, reference Pet Feeding: Stanford Animal Welfare Society
