Orania offers an example of the ‘traditional’ Afrikaner way of life and also demonstrates the ingenuity of a marginalized community with advanced irrigation techniques, implemented in close cooperation with pioneers in Israel, the only fully organic vineyards in Southern Africa and a sophisticated dairy farm and the cultivation and export of Pecan nuts. Orania is an Afrikaner town in South Africa located along the Orange River in the Karoo region of Northern Cape province. The town is split in two halves by the R369 road and lies halfway between Cape Town and Pretoria.
