Oudtshoorn, the "ostrich capital of the world", is a town in the Western Cape province of South Africa, located between the Swartberg mountains to the north and the Outeniqua Mountains to the south. Two ostrich-feather booms, during 1865–1870 and 1900–1914, truly established the settlement. With approximately 60,000 inhabitants, it is the largest town in the Little Karoo region. The town's economy is primarily reliant on the ostrich farming and tourism industries. Oudtshoorn is home to the world's largest ostrich population, with a number of specialized ostrich breeding farms, such as the Safari Show Farm and the Highgate Ostrich Show Farm.
INTERESTING FACTS
Here at Oudtshoorn Flower Market we grow our own flowers on our organic flower farm. Oreo, our resident piggy, enjoys a lovely life on the farm, and at the same time provides the soil with the best manure for flower growing. There are birds, chameleons, bees, butterflies, and other insects, that contribute to the pollination of the flowers and keep a balanced ecosystem. Our flowers go on a beautiful journey from their days on our organic flower farm, right to your door. Some of our flowers bloom all year round in our flower greenhouse. This ensures the freshest flower delivery to your door throughout the year.
No words can explain the joy and surprise on the face of a recipient when our driver delivers flowers to them. To put such smiles on the faces of people who both receive and send flowers to South Africa and Africa is incredible! Being able to bring such happiness to so many makes this the best job in the world!
