6 & 7 October 2012

The fourth Grahamstown Flower Festival will this year take place right at the beginning of October, making it the first of three regional garden and flower festivals that will celebrate the arrival of spring! Last year turned out to be the wettest in 25 years here in Grahamstown, and if the more than 50mm of rain that fell here within the space of the last 4 or 5 days is anything to go by, it looks as though the Makana Botanical Gardens will be in excellent condition for the event.

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.
