The worst drought in 100 years

Are you a fan of Die Boekklub on KykNet which is based in the town of Merweville?

Drought never has a pretty face. And when you see it up close, it's tangible. In the veld, the animals and the people.

SLOW recently joined Isuzu Motors South Africa in Merweville, as they delivered fodder to the farmers in the Central Karoo who have been battling with an ongoing drought for nearly a decade. But regardless of all they have endured (and still have to endure), hope is not lost.

Farmers Assitance SA is an NPO that supports farmers in drought-stricken areas, and they have partnered with Isuzu to organise fodder deliveries and more. If you want to get involved and donate, you can find out more about them here:   / boere-hulp-sa-farmers-assistance-sa-reg-no...  

You can also support local Merweville business, Karoo Blessings, who makes different types of nougat, as featured in the video. And yes, they deliver! Find them here:   / karooblessings  

Thank you Merweville, for giving us such a real and honest glimpse into the situation are you in, for showing us your heart.
