The establishment takes pride in offering fresh, organic, and locally sourced produce, exemplified through their family-owned farm, BoPlaas.

Accommodating Various Dietary Needs

Online Store and Homeware Section

Wildsprout extends their commitment to health and wellness through their online store, which offers lifestyle and home products. While a small collection is available online and at their Constantia store, a more extensive selection awaits at the primary Kenilworth location.
