Another busy day in George still clearing up wind-blown and storm damaged Eucalyptus (Gum) trees. Only the storm damaged trees will be cut up and removed. Even though Gums are alien trees, they are an important source of pollen for honey bees. Trees not damaged will be left untouched to serve as bfast, lunch and supper for the bees without which no ecosystem will be able to survive.

Another week or 2 and most of the storm damage will be cleared up and our town to return to normal.

The storms of 2 weeks ago exposed our communities to the brutal forces of nature. It however also created opportunities for our unemployed youth. We employed 6 youth to help with clearing up operations. This was hard work but these youngsters showed they want to earn their money. All 6 are matriculants who did not say no to manual labor.

We were able to employ 2 of these young men until end December 2026. Our youth showed that they can and want to work if given the opportunity.

NB. They were just posing with the chainsaw!

Last week's storms caused havoc in George. Trees were uprooted and damaged infrastructure, houses and 1 fatality. Most damage was caused by trees planted too close to properties. Please plan what tree species you want to plant and where. Do not plant trees that you have to stress about the moment the wind starts blowing. Love your trees but think of your safety as well.

Just a few pics of the work since the storm.

We had a hectic day assisting the George municipality in clearing up trees that fell over the roads and prevented access. More strong winds and heavy rains predicted for tomorrow. Please keep the Garden-Route in your prayers.

We had a busy day removing trees which were posing a threat to the house. People plant trees when they small without realizing those trees are going to be huge in a few years. Please talk to your nursery about the size of mature trees to prevent these situations. We now have another happy client with no trees posing a danger and lots of free kaggel wood for winter.

Clearing up Wattle behind the botanical gardens in George. We do this as our social responsibility, free of charge, so as to protect our environment against alien invasive tree species. The Black Wattle will be converted into high quality braai/kaggel wood. Clearing invasives also help the flow of the Kat River which mouths into the Garden Route Dam.
