Horticulture Students Gaining Valuable Green Skills!

Grootbos Foundation

Horticulture Students Gaining Valuable Green Skills!

At Grootbos Foundation, our Horticulture students recently sharpened their skills by learning to identify pests on plants and recognize evidence of pest damage. This is an incredibly useful green skill for the future of sustainable gardening! Some pests are easier to spot with a magnifying glass, making observation even more precise.

Before diving into their exciting project, the students enjoyed a refresher story about fynbos and pollinators in the Grootbos Gallery. Their journey continued on Thursday, 12 September 2024, as they began work on the Chelsea Flower Exhibit in Stanford! 

We can't wait to see their creativity bloom!
