As we ease into the new week, we’re still buzzing from the colour, community spirit, and joy shared in the Pniël Congregational Church Hall. A massive thank you to everyone who came out to support—from the dedicated growers and organisers to every visitor who stopped to admire a bloom or cheer at the award ceremony.
Here’s to the beauty of tradition, and to the incredible Dwarsrivier Valley community who keep it alive year after year!
