For South Africans in the USA, particularly in Virginia, there’s a very lekker SA Heritage Day Festival planned for this Sunday 24 September 2023. This promises to the first of many.
Marianne Postmas, CEO of The Hadeda Box, told SAPeople: “We’re hosting our first annual Heritage Day festival on Sunday 24th, plus we have vendors selling South African curios, clothes and groceries.” (The Hadeda Box provides bespoke SA-themed boxes for people in the USA. The boxes include SA favourites like biltong and Ouma Rusks along with hand-made curios which help support growth in SA.)
For braai-loving South Africans, the festival will have everything you’re looking for – from boerewors to biltong, droewords, peri peri prawns, bunny chow, samoosas, biryani, milktart and more. Beverages include wine, sangria and cider. And for vegetarians there’s a special Snack Pack that includes samoosas and vetkoek!
