In Rehab

Work has begun on the rehabilitation of Cecilia Forest which has been under pine and gum plantations for ages, but is now being restored to natural forest and fynbos as part of the agreement to make Table Mountain a natural heritage site. You can see the fire that is burning away what is left of the pine plantation - all the logs have been taken out now. It will be so exciting to see this beautiful part of the world in all its natural splendour.

  4. There has been so much whinging about shade trees, it is going to be exciting to see the regeneration.
