They bought the farm on the Klein Jukskei River in Johannesburg and named it the Douglasdale farm. The farmhouse is one of the oldest homes in Sandton and was built in 1905. In 1930 the family started producing milk as a hobby and in 1940 they began to retail their milk producing over 240 bottles of milk a day, by hand. In the 1950s, Douglasdale milk was delivered by horse and cart and later by delivery men on bicycles. Today the dairy produces 1.5% of the total countries daily milk production. == Security and Safety == The Douglasdale SAPS South African Police Service services the majority of the Fourways District and Bryanston, Gauteng area. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Douglasdale, Gauteng」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
