South Africa · organic, raw, natural · gyms and recovery

Every organic claim in South Africa, with the evidence beside it.

820 real places across all nine provinces — farms, dairies, markets, butchers, shops, restaurants, gyms, boxes and recovery studios — each with its claim attributed to whoever made it and an honest assurance level. Plus a hybrid and calisthenics training planner, a no-pork wholefood meal planner, an ingredient scanner that reads labels for seed oils and ultra-processing, and a diary.

Why attribution

South Africa has no legal definition of "organic". So we never award one.

Anyone can print the word on a label. Veldlist records who says what, against which standard, and when we last checked — and shows you the level of assurance behind every listing.

Third-party certified43

Audited by a named certification body against a published standard.

Participatory guarantee5

Peer-verified by a PGS group of farmers, consumers and retailers. Not a third-party audit.

Scheme or origin74

Covered by an audited scheme — a geographical indication, a food-safety standard, a curated producer list.

Operator's own claim556

Recorded from the business's own words. Not verified by anyone, including us.

Not yet checked142

Taken from a public listing. Nobody has contacted this business yet.

Registers searched: Ecocert, Control Union, COSMOS, GOTS, Fair for Life, EASY-CERT, B Corp, the CrossFit affiliate directory, the HYROX training-club finder, the Karoo Lamb geographical indication, SANHA and NIHT for halaal. Recorded 18 September 2026.

What is inside

Five tabs. One honest dataset underneath.

Find

The directory

820 listings across food, home and body, wear, eating out and the Move & recover group. Real province map. Every listing opens in Google Maps, Apple Maps, Directions and Waze. Halaal certification stamped where it sits in a register.

Move

Hybrid, calisthenics, HYROX, body

9 programs, 58 sessions, 24 conditioning formats that rotate by date, 12 skill ladders with measurable pass criteria, a readiness check, rest timer and RPE log. Rules cited to Schumann, Baar, Seiler and the ACSM.

Eat

No-pork wholefood plates

65 recipes cooked in butter, ghee, tallow, olive and coconut oil. Daily targets from bodyweight and day type; a plate builder that scales servings; a shopping list grouped by where to buy — linked back into the directory.

Scan

The ingredient reader

75 deterministic rules for seed oils, sugars, sweeteners, emulsifiers, preservatives, colourants and animal-derived ingredients with an unstated source. E-number decoding, a NOVA estimate, barcode lookup and camera scanning.

Diary

Trackers, habits, tasks, journal

Nine trackers, habit streaks, tasks with due dates, a journal that saves as you type, a weekly review with sparklines, and a daily quote and tip — all on your device.

Install

Put it on your home screen in about ten seconds.

Veldlist is a progressive web app. There is nothing to download, nothing to sign in to first, and no store review between you and the directory — it installs straight from the browser, keeps a home-screen icon, opens full screen and keeps working when the signal goes.

Mac, Windows & Linux
  1. Open the app, then click the install icon in the address bar (Chrome, Edge, Arc, Brave).
  2. Safari on macOS: File → Add to Dock.

Install from your browser

iPhone, iPad, Android, Mac, Windows. One icon, full screen, works offline once loaded, updates itself — no store, no waiting, no 100 MB download.

Next

Coming soon on Android and the Play Store

A Play Store listing is on the way for people who prefer to install from the store. The web app stays the fastest way in, and everything you save now carries over.

Either way

The same app

One codebase, one dataset, one price. Nothing is held back for the store version, and nothing is gated behind an account you do not want.

Coverage

All nine provinces, plus the sellers who courier anywhere.

Deepest in the Western Cape and Gauteng today; every province has its own page, and every listing has one. Know a place we are missing? Suggest it inside the app.

Pricing

The directory is free for everyone. Plus is one payment a year.

Coverage and the scanner are never gated. Paid once through Yoco with a South African card, Apple Pay or Google Pay — no auto-renewal, no card kept on file, a reminder before it ends.

The rule

Assurance is not for sale

Certified, participatory guarantee, scheme, own claim, not yet checked — recorded from registers and your own statements. Send us your certificate and we check the register; that is the only way up.

WhatsApp

Ask on WhatsApp. A person reads every message.

The same 820 listings, in the app you already have open all day — no account, no download, nothing to install. Send one of these or write your own. Replies come from Christiaan, usually the same day. The automatic answering service is built and waiting on its WhatsApp Business number; until it is switched on, this page will not pretend otherwise.

Questions

Straight answers.

Is 'organic' legally defined in South Africa?

No. Draft organic regulations were gazetted in December 2006 and never promulgated. Certification is private and voluntary. Regulation R146 of 2010, regulation 47, restricts the words organic, free range, grassfed, pure and natural on labels and advertising, and section 41 of the Consumer Protection Act treats implied approvals as misleading. That is why Veldlist attributes every claim instead of awarding badges.

What does 'in the register' mean?

We searched the certifier's or scheme's own public register — Ecocert, Control Union, COSMOS, GOTS, Fair for Life, EASY-CERT, B Corp, the CrossFit affiliate directory or the HYROX training-club finder — and found the operation listed there on the recorded date. 92 of 820 listings pass that test today.

Where is raw milk legal to sell in South Africa?

Only inside the local-authority areas listed in Annexure C of Regulation R1555 of 1997, from herds enrolled in the bovine TB and brucellosis schemes, labelled Unpasteurised / Ongepasteuriseerd or Raw milk / Rou melk. Raw-milk cheese is permitted nationally.

Does Veldlist list pork?

No. Veldlist carries no pork producers, no pork recipes and no pork in meal plans, and its ingredient scanner flags gelatin, rennet and emulsifiers whose animal source is not stated. Halaal certification (SANHA, MJC Halaal Trust, NIHT, ICSA) is recorded where it appears in a certifier's register.

Is the app free?

The directory, the trust layer, the ingredient scanner, one training program at a time and the diary are free and stay free. Plus — every program and skill ladder, the meal planner and shopping list, the coach, label photo reading, sync and export — is R899 a year, paid once through Yoco. There is no auto-renewal and no card kept on file.

Can a business buy a better assurance level?

No. Placement can be bought (verified, featured, market pack and chain listings); the assurance level is recorded from registers and operators' own statements and is never for sale.

Which parts of South Africa are covered?

All nine provinces plus nationwide online sellers — Eastern Cape 100, Free State 44, Gauteng 159, Mpumalanga 41, Northern Cape 25, KwaZulu-Natal 96, Limpopo 35, North West 64, Western Cape 253. Coverage is deepest in the Western Cape and Gauteng; every province has its own page.
