Loads of fun at picnic festival
2007-02-22
VISITORS to the 2nd Cape Country Picnic Festival can look forward to a wonderful weekend.
The festival will be held from tomorrow to Sunday on the Bien Donné Farm in Simondium.
Festival-goers can bring their own picnic baskets, blankets, cutlery, chairs and umbrellas. No food or drinks will be allowed at the gates.
