Welcome
Our main sponsor will again be the Grahamstown office of Pam Golding Properties, whose support has been invaluable in establishing this event as one of the regional favourites. Daphne Timm and her efficient team will again co-coordinate the Gardens of Grahamstown Competition, which forms an integral part of the festival.
Local business, Makana Brick, again promised their support and we expect a number of our previous sponsors to be on board again. They will be joined by numerous local and regional companies that will again be sponsoring printing, prizes, signage and more.
Garden stalls will again form the vibrant heart of the festival and we're hoping for even more growth year.
While the website currently contains info related to last year's event, we will update the various pages as the programme is finalised.

Some sad news
MEMBERS of the organising committee of the Grahamstown Flower Festival were shocked and saddened to learn of the sudden death on Wednesday 18 April of Jenny Bowker.
As her fellow committee members would be quick to attest, Jenny was a stalwart on the organising body of the flower festival.
Jenny was involved in many facets of the festival over the years, from sitting on the organising committee and arranging the food stalls to organising the school bands and children's workshops.
Jenny's undoubted expertise and passion for all things festival and floral will be sorely missed, as will her friendly and co-operative disposition.
