If the idea of spending a day amongst the gardens and grounds of the beautiful Tokara wine farm in Stellenbosch, all it’s splendour sounds like a good day out – then make sure to diarise their Rare Plant Fair and Open Garden event, which is scheduled for 13th April.

Meander through tranquil walks dotted with sculptures by local artists while taking in the magnificent vistas over the large garden dam.

The dedicated indigenous garden, textures in the cork oak forest and the fresh scents wafting from the terraces of the picking garden will appeal to all the senses. Other enchanting secrets worth discovering are the inspiring vegetable garden, wetlands and the gurgling mountain stream flowing into soothing lily ponds.

The wide variety of plants on sale from indigenous flora such as fynbos and proteas to the more exotic, this popular event will appeal to all tastes. Besides coffee and other refreshments, Tokara will be well represented with their elegant wines and award-winning extra virgin olive oils.

The Autumn Open Garden and Annual Rare Plant Fair is open from 09h00 until 16h00.

Entry for adults is R50 in aid of a local charity, and kids under 10 get in free.

The Tokara Tasting Lounge, restaurants and Delicatessen will be open as usual on Saturday.
