Back to nature<br />

The Garden Route Botanical Garden in<br />

<strong>George</strong> is the ideal place to spend an<br />

afternoon surrounded by beautiful fauna and<br />

flora. Situated at the top end of Caledon<br />

Street, this lovely indigenous garden is<br />

perfect for strolling, bird watching, picnicking<br />

and photography. Centred around the town’s<br />

first dam, the Garden has a Medicinal Mound<br />

at its centre. It showcases indigenous plants<br />

with reputed healing properties.<br />

Also located on the site is the Moriarty<br />

Environmental Centre which houses the<br />

Southern Cape Herbarium, a tea garden, a<br />

comprehensive Botanical Library and the<br />

WESSA Educational Office. Next to the<br />

Centre is an indigenous nursery which sells<br />

plants to the public. If you haven’t prepared a<br />

picnic basket, or want some delicious<br />

refreshments, visit the tea garden Martha and<br />
