Elvana’s Homesteading
Homeschooling mom of 3. Sourdough and other artisan breads. In person classes about homesteading. Jesus - centered life. We specialise in international cuisine.
Healthy products ranging from food, garden produce and skin care. Strengthening communities on healthy living and self-sustainability. At Elvana's Training and Development Center we focus on the following:
1. Cooking classes for adults and children (since 2020). We work mainly on client's requests on specific recipes and send quote accordingly. The most popular dishes/countries are India (curries etc.), Greece, Italy.
2. Personal/professional development and self-sufficiency for adults and children. We offer our venue for different facilitators to host workshops, such as fruit and vegetable dehydration class, artisan bread classes (ciabatta and sourdough), basic course on oyster mushrooms (planned for the 30th of July), homemade Italian pasta from scratch, yoghurt making from home, basic knowledge on permaculture and organic compost making at home. We have more courses in the pipeline, like cheese making etc. We are currently running an extra mural educational program for homeschooled children - since 2020.
3. Team building, networking and leisure or retreat activities is our newest venture. The venue can be hired for different events and functions, i.e: weddings, birthdays, staff retreat, team building, etc. We work with a number of facilitators, who are experts in their area of work. The Founder, Elvana, holds a Masters of Social Work (Policy Planning and Administration from the University of Missouri in U.S.A) and can assist the HR office to design a tailor-made program for the staff of a company or organisation.
4. Fresh farm produce delivery is available to purchase. Our motto is: "from our kitchen to yours-what my family eats". Please check our catalogue of available products to order 081 479 9028. We deliver in Pretoria East.
Looks about right 🤭
But why not?
We want to go on a road trip from Pretoria to Cape Town in December. I cannot wait to see the garden route.
I am checking the internet also. But please spam me with ideas where to stop and nice, budget friendly places to stay for a family of 5.
Aaand go 🚗 ⛵

My child's business idea. So proud of him! He works so hard in what he does!
He got his first official order today.
Until I secure horse manure, I am using manure from our chickens and the rabbits.
To that we add green and brown matter, as well as some normal soil.
We water it, mix it, and cover it.
We repeat the watering and mixing every 3-4 days for a month.
After that, we use it on our veggie garden.

We have exposed our kids at a very early age to do house chores. Isaac was only 3 when he was attending my cooking classes for kids and learnt how to chop veggies under my supervision.
Today he wanted to make pancakes. He followed the recipe and added the ingredients himself, and he is frying them himself, under my supervision.
The joy in his face when he flipped that first pancake! 🎉 🥞
This is a part of homeschooling that I would not trade it for anything!
It teaches them confidence while learning a new skill, they practice math and watch how science is applied in real life.
It teaches them a great life skill that will feed them for life.
