Alien Vegetation Hacks / Removal

Invasive alien vegetation refers to plants brought to South Africa from other countries, both intentionally and unintentionally, that cause human, environmental or economic harm.

Without natural enemies, these plants reproduce and spread rapidly, taking valuable water and space from our indigenous plants. Many alien plants consume more water than local plants, depleting our valuable underground water resources. Dense alien vegetation can also provide plenty of fuel for veldfires, making them exceptionally hot, which damages the burnt area’s soil structure.

Join us for alien vegetation hacks/removal every last Saturday of the month in the Caledon Wildflower Garden and Nature Reserve and every first Sunday in Greyton with the Greyton Conservation Society and Wild Restoration. We will share information on others throughout the Overberg as they happen.
