Winter Garden Fair 2025 at Vuleka Centre

1000 Hills Tourism celebrates Winter Gardens.

Winter Garden Fair 2025 

Vuleka Centre, Botha’s Hill, 24 & 25 May 2025.

The third annual glorious Garden Fair comes to the Vuleka Conference Centre in Botha’s Hill on the weekend of 24 and 25 May, supported by 1000 Hills Tourism.

A selection of growers; nurseries; retailers; garden product suppliers; manufacturers; landscapers; and those involved in the garden industry have been invited to showcase their wares and services in a farm-type setting catering for those with a tiny green space, patio, window box or indoor garden; to those with larger properties and subsistence farmers.  Provision will be made to promote water-wise gardens.

1000 Hills gardening guru, Tanya Visser, will be on hand to give advice and pointers. She will have a pop-up shop as part of the Fair.

1000 Hills Tourism has once more partnered to assist in marketing the Garden Fair to be held for the second time at the spacious and accessible grounds of the tranquil Vuleka Trust Conference Centre - a stone’s throw away from 1000 Hills Chef School and Pot and Kettle.

Garden Fair 2025 has come about after a hugely successful second event held last year after numerous requests from growers and gardeners for an opportunity to showcase, buy and sell plants and products in the light of the Royal Show Grounds in PMB no longer being available for the Witness Garden Show – which was always a calendar highlight.

1000 Hills Tourism invite garden lovers to visit the Garden Fair to consider creating a plant and garden-themed self-drive 1000 Hills meander by also visiting some extensive nurseries in the Valley of 1000 hills - such as Potting Shed Garden Centre at Pot & Kettle; Ludwig’s Star Roses; MacNut Farm (especially their Sunday Fresh Produce Market); Shongweni Market; Stonehouse; Woza Moya; Pilgrim's Rest; the Mushroom Farm; Fig Tree Farm and on Sunday 25 May, while Umgeni Steam Railway is running, visit Inchanga Craft Market at Inchanga Station which has stalls selling plants.
