• In the Lekwa-Teemane area we have numerous agricultural activies, potato farming, maize farming, cattle and chicken farming, all producing food for the people of both our area, neighbouring areas and also for the national market.  Linked with the live giving waters of the Vaal River, our area produces food for the people.  Vast numbers of our community members are directly employed in the agricultural sector, or derived activities.

  • The Bloemhof Dam is not only beautiful when it's full, but also shows the awesome power of water once in flood.  Fortunately that does not happen too often!  Notwithstanding, water has a force to draw people in all kinds of activities and business opportunities and we are planning some major developments at the Bloemhof Dam in collaboration with numerous investment and development partners.

  • Lekwa-Teemane has the beautiful Vaal river snaking through on its way to the Orange river, several kilometers downstream.  This gives us some of the most beautiful river resorts,  fishing spots and water recreation activities you can find. The Vaal river, together with Diamond digging industry, is some of the major job creators in this area.  Water is life bears true meaning to our area.  You might call it Vaal, we call it the life blood of Lekwa-Teemane.

  • Majestic and tall, Grain Silos in both our towns are a familiar site and landmark for the local people.
