Friday night is Pubnight at Beyond the Moon farm

Friday nights are our big social event for the week. We are actually going out, getting dressed up and all that (into clean clothes, nothing too fancy - we don't even know what fancy is anymore) and its exciting to see some other faces and chat and have a crowd of kids run about and play. This is different to going to an actual pub or restaurant as people mill around and chat and so we all are getting to know each other.

Susan, our trusted helper and preparer for these nights, always manages to bring along the most beautiful flowers which she uses to adorn the various set tables for the night ahead.

By nightfall, when the fires are burning (on cold nights) and the candles are lit and everything is looking festive and inviting, the guests soon come trickling in to relax and chat at the bar or around the fires and to enjoy a simple but delicious meal later on.

The Friday night has proved itself to be a bonus to the local growing community, allowing us to become closer. People from as far afield as Sedgefield, Hoekwil, Wilderness and George have been known to enjoy an evening at the venue and even our Beyond the Moon farm guests join in from time to time.

Tonight was pub night at the venue. Nothing out of the ordinary you might think, but like a breeze of fresh air, Heather and Donald have come back into our midst to run the pub and make those delicious dinners of theirs. They are both very professional in their approach and seem to draw the crowds with their sumptuous food and lovely nature.













We had Lemon and Herb Chicken with creamy mash and a fresh green salad (R30) tonight and for dessert they made us the most delicious Malva Pudding (R15), beautifully presented with a lavender flower on top.

Thank you Heather and Donald for running the pub night again and good luck.

About 30 adults joined in the fun, plus loads of kids, and everyone relaxed and enjoyed themselves. That’s what its all about and makes it worth the effort I would say.

As per usual and true to her nature, Susan, busy, busy, busy, helped set up and prepare and tidy up again at the end. Susan, you are a gem! Thank you!
