Every year, just as the autumn leaves begin to fall, Garden World in Gauteng hosts its renowned Autumn Harvest Faire. With so much to see and lots to do, visitors are captivated by the contrasts of thousands of plant and flower varieties, show gardens and a packed schedule of interesting and action-filled events.
This year the Faire kicks off with a Supper Theatre. Well-known singer George Meiring will be entertaining guests with many of our favourite tunes. Children will be entertained with two Easter egg hunts and a jewellery making workshop. Other events include a cooking demonstration from SA Garden editor, Lizette Jonker, some tips on herb gardening from Margaret Roberts and Garden World’s own JJ van Rensburg will celebrate an Autumn Garden with guests.
