This annual festival of flowers and sensible living has the motto “Habitat Health for Floral Wealth” and shows the need for preserving habitats to conserve floral biodiversity. The festival features a spectacular exhibit of spring wild flowers, designed by David Davidson (of Chelsea fame), as well as simple examples of ways in which we can live more sustainably and tread more lightly on this earth. The Fair takes place just after the Whale Festival when crowds and traffic have retuned to (near) normal, children are still on holiday and the whales are cavorting in Walker Bay.
