Game Farm Life in the Kitchen

We've just returned from an amazing few days on a Game Farm in Klaserie. Our friends invited us to their family farm.  Even with an almost 12 hour road trip to get the camp, it was so worth it.
It was wonderful to be in the bush, but I was fascinated by the simple, functional decor that has evolved at this remote place.
The staff and the kitchen with it's coal stove produced delicious food, morning, afternoon and evening.
This colourful dried fruit was set out in preparation for a delicious Game Pie we had that evening.
Meals were generally served in the dining room, but every morning we helped ourselves to wholesome mealie meal porridge from the coal stove, followed by bacon and eggs, which were kept warm on the racks above.
What a privilege to experience rustic, colonial game farm life.
