Mushroom Season at Grootbos
Do you know your mushrooms?

Last week, the Grootbos Foundation head office moved to its new home on the neighbouring farm, Waterkop, the original name of what became Bellavista.
This move marks an exciting new chapter! It also means that our Conservation Team can finally stretch out a bit. Up until now, seven of our fynbos-loving life scientists have been working side-by-side in a single lab at Grootbos.
With more space opening up, we’re looking forward to seeing the team settle in, spread out, and continue their important work with more breathing room.
More photos and updates coming soon as we make ourselves at home!
