Water and ground in Stellenbosch
Stellenbosch is ringed by wine farms, and most of its pump work follows the grapes. Farms in the Jonkershoek, Banhoek, Devon Valley and Helderberg areas pump from farm dams and the Eerste River system into drip irrigation through the dry summer, with boreholes for top up. Harvest brings a flood of winery wash water and effluent to pump. In town, the university, Technopark and the newer housing estates add booster pumps, pressure sets and sewage pump stations, while older homes in Idas Valley and Mostertsdrift have garden boreholes drilled during the drought. Winter storms swell the Eerste River and streams off the mountains. Pump shops and irrigation suppliers sit in the industrial area at Plankenbrug, with more in Somerset West.
