Madame’ Clucks Alot is a regenerative agroecological farm founded and officially registered in 2021 by Ntobeko Mafu, after operating informally for some time. Located in Nhlazatshe, Edendale (Pietermaritzburg), the farm specializes in climate-smart agriculture, combining free-range broiler production, organic crop farming, and agricultural training and development.
Initially focused solely on broiler chickens, the business experienced a major setback in February 2023, losing 650 birds due to load-shedding. Instead of closing down, Madame’ Clucks Alot pivoted—diversifying into organic crop farming and launching training programs. This marked the shift from being just a poultry business to becoming a fully-fledged climate-smart agricultural hub.
