Collaborating for Conservation

The Grootbos Foundation and Cape Nature recently joined forces, along with Zak Essa from the Presidential Employment Stimulus Fund, to meet with the biodiversity stewardship team working tirelessly to clear invasive plants from the dunes in Walker Bay Nature Reserve. This collaboration aims to assess the progress made in the past 7 months and strategize for future dune-clearing initiatives.

It's inspiring to witness such dedication to preserving our natural habitats! This partnership highlights the importance of collective efforts in conservation and showcases the impact of collaborations between organizations like the Grootbos Foundation, Cape Nature, and the current Social Employment Fund (SEF), supported by Brownie Points.

Together, we're making strides towards a more sustainable and biodiverse future. Let's continue working hand in hand to protect and nurture our precious ecosystems.
