Don’t miss this year’s Christmas Country Fair

All funds raised at the fair will be distributed to a wide variety of projects on the KZN north coast which are supported by the organisation.

PREPARATIONS for this year’s Christmas Country Fair on 2 and 3 November at Collisheen Estate are in full swing.
Organisers and members of the Christmas Fair Fund have been working around the clock to ensure the fair will be an occasion to remember.

Convener of the Fair Michelle Blake said, “Our aim is to offer visitors a unique shopping experience combined with an enjoyable day with friends in the beautiful Collisheen country gardens.”

This year the ‘Fair with Flair’ boasts more than 90 vendors selling inspired Christmas gifts, jewellery, décor, furnishings, toys, clothing, fresh flowers and Christmas decor.  The vendors have been hand-picked to showcase the best creatives in KZN. Many favourite vendors will return, while exciting new products will be on offer. It’s so worth taking a day off.

Christmas Country Fair preparations are in full swing particularly those responsible for the puddings and cakes. Two busy ladies are Marydearne Boyce with her Christmas puddings and Gaby Lyle with her Christmas cakes.
