Valleybrook to host horticulture tour of South Africa

We recently received this letter from John Schroeder with Valleybrook (the company behind Jeepers Creepers, Heritage Perennials and other notable plant brands):

Your readers may be interested in hearing about our upcoming (3rd) horticulture tour to South Africa. South Africa offers a great deal to those with an interest in horticulture. A great climate, tremendous plant diversity, lovely gardens, a long agricultural tradition as well as outstanding garden centers are just a few of the reasons. We will visit a number of professionally interesting sites, including a number of garden centers.

What makes this trip so appealing however are all the other experiences we will enjoy. An African safari belongs on everyone’s bucket list. Great sightseeing opportunities, history, architecture, wineries and meeting locals will fill our time. This is not a trip packed with only business visits. Life is too short for only work!

The itinerary and registration forms are available online at valleybrook.com, or call 800-824-1120 or e-mail js@valleybrook.com for more details. The trip begins Oct. 25, 2012 with a Kruger safari. After the 15-day main tour, there is an opportunity to add a four day visit to Victoria Falls and additional outstanding safari lodges.

Our travel groups are small, and are limited to a maximum of 16 travelers. We enjoy first class accommodations, unique experiences and lots of fun. Our former tour participants rate South Africa as their favorite destination.

All the best for a great 2012.

Sincerely,
John Schroeder
