Sustainable Ceder Restoring our Cederberg connection by facilitating Cedar Tree planting & empowering local communities

The Cederberg is situated in the Western Cape (South Africa)250km North of Cape Town in 180000 hectares of mountainous terrain. The origin Cederberg name was given from the local endemic Ceder trees that naturally occurs here. There are currently estimated that there is only about 13000 Ceder trees left and that they are now on the brick of extinction. Their numbers are now too low to be sustainable or regenerate for the future ahead.

Keeping It Wild in the Cederberg🌿

Some weekends stay with you long after the tents are packed away.

Keeping it Wild in the Cederberg was one of those weekends.

It has taken us nearly two weeks to try capture what this experience meant to us and how grateful we are to every single person who helped make it possible.

Thank you to the speakers, local community, farmers, Riel dancers, volunteers, brands, partners, and everyone who made the journey out to be part of something meaningful.

Our blog is finally live — and we’d love you to read it.
