When former president Nelson Mandela announced 25 years ago that South Africans should use the day of 24 September to celebrate our heritage, it was meant to remind each one of us where we come from and what was left to us by our ancestors – our various cultures, our history as well as the agricultural and every other sector that made us the nation and the people that we are.

Before long Heritage Day became Braai Day and families and friend started using this day to gather around a braai.

VKB understands the hearts of South Africans who gather on a day like this all too well. That is why they encourage it this year with specials on charcoal, chicken portions and “braaipap” maize meal from their own range of products.

Added to that, everyone that makes use of this offer, has the opportunity to win a VKB gift voucher to the value of R5 000 when they share pictures on Facebook showing how they’ve enjoyed Braai Day and VKB’s products. Use the hash tag #BraaidaywithVKB/BraaidagmetVKB and your entry is complete.

Visit the Facebook page at www.facebook.com/vkblandbou for more information.

THE NEW FACE OF SOUTH AFRICAN AGRICULTURE

With 21 global awards in the first six years of its existence, Food For Mzansi is much more than an agriculture publication. It is a movement, unashamedly saluting the unsung heroes of South African agriculture. We believe in the power of agriculture to promote nation building and social cohesion by telling stories that are often overlooked by broader society.
