Why Tree Planting?

By helping to plant 5,000 trees, Reforest Fest attendees are contributing to Greenpop’s broader Uilenkraal Forest Restoration Project. This initiative runs year-round and involves working across four properties to implement a holistic forest restoration strategy.

Our ongoing efforts extend beyond tree planting to include managing alien vegetation, supporting natural regeneration, and enhancing biodiversity. This comprehensive approach ensures the rejuvenation of degraded forest patches at the Platbos Forest Reserve and surrounding areas, helping to restore vital ecosystems that provide essential services like carbon sequestration, soil stability, and habitats for diverse species.

Participating in Reforest Fest means actively engaging in a sustainable future, where restored forests thrive as resilient ecosystems supporting both nature and local communities. Together, we are fostering a legacy of environmental stewardship and ecological balance.
