Thinking Aloud: Rosemary Hill

Rosemary Hill

I came across info on a wonderful Farm market out in the Donkerhoek part of Pretoria,

called Rosemary Hill.... It's obviously a working farm, but they also run a wonderful tea

garden and an organic market twice a month.

On arrival you are greeted by a very neat and orderly parking area and this

"speed" sign - 30kms - dead slow - a sign of things to come?

some of the gorgeous Nguni cattle on the property

wild grasses amidst fruit trees, blowing in the gentle breeze
