WE’D LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU!

Write to us and tell us about your move to the platteland, the characters in your town, festivals and bazaars you love, the things that bother you, your garden, animals and clever ideas… Send an email to

letters@goplatteland.co.za or post it to Platteland Chitchat, PO Box 740, Cape Town 8000. We give preference to letters of fewer than 300 words. Remember to include your name and surname and, very important, the town where you live. Platteland reserves the right to edit and shorten letters.
