It was the vision of the late Sarah Viviers in the 1950's resulting in the farm getting the name of Perseverance. This happened when the grandfather divided the farm between two of his sons.
Farm Perseverance is still in recovery after a 7-year drought that ended in 2019. The many Acacia hardwood trees (camelthorn and blackthorn) that died during the drought are now harvested as a means to offset the re-stocking of the farm. This is done alongside the approved permit system for the harvesting of these protected indigenous trees.
The Namibian Acacia hardwood makes excellent fires for barbeque/braai, woodfiring pizza ovens, woodfiring stoves and fireplaces and any other energy needs. The wood is slow to form coals that last long.
Farm Perseverance is producing firewood in bulk. Wood is cut in lengths of 30cm and split for easier use. The prepared wood is packed in biodegradable bags in quantities of 15 kg, alternatively in bulk bags of 1 ton. Prepared wood is trucked from the farmyard to Walvis Bay where export is done through the Walvis Bay port.
