MEDICINAL DEMONSTRATION GARDEN

Huts in the Medicinal Demonstartion Garden


The garden is marked by two magnificently built structures, the Basotho hut and the Hartbeeshuis (a traditional Afrikaner home) which contextualise our traditional medicines in their cultures. Displays of dried medicinal plants can be seen in the Basotho hut. Selection of plants for the garden is based on the most commonly used and rare medicinal plants of South Africa, and the Free State in particular.

The diversity and horticultural splendour of our medicinal flora is displayed here, and we have more than 30 species with medicinal value, making the garden a must to visit. Best from late Spring to late Summer. Guided tours can be arranged.
