Mushroom Season at Grootbos
Do you know your mushrooms?
Joyce Mtsha is a hardworking business owner who leads a team of biodiversity stewards. They clear invasive plants from wild fynbos to help protect the environment.
Thanks to good planning and steady work, Joyce was recently able to buy a second vehicle. This means she can now get her teams into far-off areas where their help is needed most.
Joyce saved carefully, built strong working relationships, and made sure her teams always did a good job. Because of this, she got more contracts to clear alien plants, and her business has grown.
Her teams are proud to be part of this important work. Every day, they help look after the land and support nature.
We’re proud of Joyce and what she’s achieved.
