27 May - Arts, Culture & Environment - TMNP kick starts shade tree-planting project

In today’s show, we spoke to Gavin Bell – Table Mountain National Park Area Manager. Table Mountain National Park staff and volunteers planted shade trees in the lower Tokai plantation as part of an environmental heritage project. The shade tree-planting project forms part of the Management Framework for Tokai and Cecilia plantations, which sets out the future vision for the rehabilitation and recreational use of these areas. According to Mr Bell several trial plantings were neccessary before a large scale public planting in June. People who are interested in taking part in the tree planting project can email their contact details to Wanika Rusthoi at wanika.rusthoi@sanparks.org or contact her on (021) 701 8692.
