As Local African nurseries, we have to be unapologetic about our plant material’s quality! Superior trees thrive in landscapes! At Nguni, that’s our standard. We grow only high quality plants & tree saplings for every project. #QualityGrowth #NguniNursery #SuperiorSaplings

We're eradicating invasive Eucalyptus to protect forest & conserve water in our reforestation project. These trees outcompete indigenous species & reduce stream flow. We then use them as stakes in our matured tree blocks #SustainableFarming #restoration #localproject #ngunitrees

Leading plan/tree planting initiatives in Africa, we must focus on quality plants. Nurseries are key, providing not just supplies but also educating communities and funders, who are often unfamiliar with local species. This approach ensures sustainable projects. #greenafrica

We’re all about starting strong & that begins right at the seedling stage. We believe the journey to a mature tree starts with picking the best of the best after the germination stage. This is also true for mass planting projects high quality saplings have higher survival %

This past weekend, we assessed our work on the farm’s waterways. We’ve been clearing alien invasives & it’s brought life back to our streams. At Nguni Nursery, we're earth keepers, turning a neglected quarry into a thriving ecosystem. 🌿💧 #Reforestation #EcologicalRestoration

We've started our build for NetHouse C, our third NetHouse, designed and built by the Nguni team. This facility will harden plants and trees coming directly from our production tunnels. Proud of our in-house innovation! 🌱 #NguniNursery #Horticulture #Indigenoustrees #mzansi

We restoring our landscape & creating a viable green business with our nursery, offering matured indigenous trees & plants. The hardest part is getting our local government & stakeholders to support our nursery. Eastern Cape is a tough cookie to crack, but we r pushing on!

We 💚 visiting locally owned nurseries during my travels. Today in Malawi, I met Lazaro Zekiyasi, a fellow green entrepreneur. These nurseries often lack focus on indigenous species. Let’s support them & promote native plants & trees green initiatives. #GreenAfrica #SupportLocal

One day, only those who work the land will be able to eat. Going back to the land growing our own food is life. Let’s respect the soil & let’s seek more ways of connecting with nature. Our own plants & ways are sold back to us healthier options but this was our way of living!
