Partnering with St Paul’s Primary School, Vergenoegd Löw Wine Estate's new project aims to beautify the school grounds and instill a sense of hope among the students and the broader community.
Corius Visser, managing director at Vergenoegd Löw, emphasizes that sustainability and community are fundamental for the winery. He views initiatives like the garden project as big steps towards strengthening the ideals of the community. "Establishing a beautiful garden instills hope in the younger generation, fostering well-being and optimism," he says.
