National Arbor week gives us the opportunity to call on all South Africans to plant and maintain indigenous trees and shrubs, highlighting the importance of sustainable farming. In line with our Farming for the Future initiative, one of our local enterprise and supplier development beneficiaries, De Fynne Nursery in Paarl understands that it starts with healthy, quality soil.
This is achieved through the following:
- Reducing resource use such as energy and water
- Minimising chemical inputs
- Improving soil quality
- Conserving biodiversity
- Supporting local jobs and local procurement
As part of the Woolies family, you too can contribute to South Africa's Arbor Week efforts by planting and growing indiginous plants. This allows and encourages a vibrant, flourishing garden.
