In the rugged, windswept Cederberg wilderness, a towering treasure - the Clanwilliam cedar (Widdringtonia cederbergensis)—once stood proud. Now, critically endangered, it survives only in fragments. But rooibos farmers are sowing seeds of revival.

Together with Sustainable Cedar, CapeNature, and local communities, they are nurturing cedar seedlings in nurseries, replanting thousands of them, and raising awareness around fire protection and habitat restoration. This work is not just ecological - it’s deeply human, inspiring job creation, strengthening communities, and planting hope in the soil.

These cedar saplings are more than trees - they are living legacies, bridging past and future. In their growth, we find hope, renewal, and the promise that even when nature hangs by a thread, collective action can weave it back to health.

Imagine future hikers finding shade beneath cedar canopies we planted today -generations breathing the air of our shared commitment. That is the power of a single seed.
