For four days this October, the gate to Tokara’s private farm garden will stand open.

It’s part of the Garden Town Stellenbosch Festival, and it’s an unusual invitation. The garden isn’t a place we normally welcome visitors, so this is a chance to see a side of the estate that stays out of view for most of the year. It also falls at a lovely moment, with spring settling in across the Winelands.

You can walk the garden at your own pace between 10am and 5pm on:

  • Friday 23 October
  • Saturday 24 October
  • Friday 30 October
  • Saturday 31 October

Bring your curiosity, take your time with the views, and enjoy spring in Stellenbosch.
