Legend has it that the earth shares its healing power with mankind by letting hot water bubble up through earth’s crust. Hot springs still give relief to many ailments today.

Thousands of years ago, the hot spring in the Overberg was used by the indigenous people living in the area. When the Dutch explorers first discovered the Overberg in 1694, they found the hot spring and its healing waters. The establishment of the town of Caledon was directly connected with the hot spring which gave much relief and healing to travellers over the following three centuries. The earliest European farmer living at the hot spring, and caring for guests was Ferdinandes Appel.

The South African Breweries Ltd’s (SAB) involvement in the barley and malting industries in South Africa stretches back more than a century. The modern malting era began with the building of a malting plant at SAB’s Isando Brewery in the late 1950s, resulting in an increasing involvement in local malting barley development programmes.
