Indigenous tree planting in George on Earth Day

"This Earth Day, on 22 April, an indigenous tree planting initiative in George brought the Malgas River to life in a partnership with Food & Trees for Africa (FTA) and global investment manager Schroders, where a significant riparian buffer zone restoration initiative concluded. Over two days, volunteers completed the initial planting of 475 indigenous trees and shrubs along the Malgas River in George, Western Cape. Generously supported by Schroders, this community-engaged project, named “Respect the River,” also provides temporary employment for local foresters and ensures ongoing care for the restored riverbank."
