Nestled between the Barossa Valley and the Adelaide Hills, the picturesque town of Mt. Pleasant will once again host the annual S.A. Spring Garden Festival, happening on Saturday the 21st of September 2024.

The festival features a full program that includes very special guest speaker Hannah Moloney, a large variety of plant and garden stalls, garden themed workshops, talks, activities and free Nature Craft activities for the kids. There will also be lots of delicious food and beverages, including gluten free and vegan options.
