Welcome from Your Hosts
Hi there, we’re Karin and Norman Foster, your hosts at Kookfontein Rooibos.
We live and work on a small Rooibos farm in the heart of the Cederberg, where we grow, pack, and send out our teas with love — one order, one cup at a time.
This legal page might be filled with the fine print, but it’s here to keep things clear and honest — just like our tea. 💚
