Johannesburg — 9 November 2026: Bringing a little of the Cape Winelands to Gauteng, Babylonstoren has opened A Garden of Gifts at Mall of Africa for the festive season. Situated between Nomad Restaurant and Skins Cosmetics, diagonally opposite Tashas, the pop-up offers shoppers a carefully selected range of farm-inspired gifts. Drawing inspiration from the garden, which remains central to Babylonstoren's approach, the collection features products grown, crafted and gathered throughout the year, including pantry favourites, botanical fragrances and textiles, all brought together with festive gifting in mind.

Visitors to the pop-up can browse pantry treats, bath and body products, candles and home fragrance, linen, tableware, festive decor and gift-ready sets. There are wishlist-worthy finds for foodies, hosts and those with an eye for something exceptional. Complimentary gift wrapping is available in-store, adding a thoughtful finishing touch to every gift.

“So many of our guests travel from Gauteng to visit Babylonstoren. This festive season, we’re bringing a little of the farm closer to them,” says Tandi Oosthuizen, Head of Retail at Babylonstoren. “A Garden of Gifts brings together the things we’ve grown and made with care throughout the year. We look forward to sharing them at Mall of Africa.”

The shop will trade daily until 24 December, with extended hours in December to allow a little more time for choosing those final gifts.
