Viral internet trends are pushing desert succulents toward total extinction. Poachers are tearing Conophytum (Cone Plants) out of South Africa & Namibia for online sales. Nature belongs in the wild, not in a shopping cart. #PreserveOurPlants ➡️ trees.africa
Only 17 mature Berlinia korupensis trees have ever been found. Because its heavy seeds only fall 50 metres from the parent tree, it can't naturally escape habitat destruction. Help us guard Africa's rare green giants ➡️ trees.africa #PreserveOurPlants
The Giant Orchid Tree opens its blooms at night for hawk moth pollinators. Now, charcoal clearing & development in Kenya & Tanzania are fragmenting its home. When the forest goes, the magic goes with it. Help us protect these habitats trees.africa #PreserveOurPlants
Zero mature Chimanimani Cycads left in the wild. Stolen from the mountains of Zimbabwe & Mozambique by illegal poachers for private collections. Cycads survived dinosaurs, but they can't survive greed. Protect nature's legacy: trees.africa #WorldNatureConservationDay
Two mountain pockets in Algeria - all that’s left of the Algerian Fir (Abies numidica). Habitat loss & climate shifts are pushing this species to the edge. Once it’s gone, it’s gone forever. Preserve natural heritage this #WorldNatureConservationDay ➡️ trees.africa
Our Head of Programmes, Robyn Hills, joins a number of orgs from across SA for the inaugural #strategy session for Tiger-funded NGOs. There she will forge new pathways toward #food #security for all.
Finding continued inspiration in the words of @ImtiazSooliman from @GiftoftheGivers Our humanity and status is nothing in comparison to our humanity. Enjoying learning from partners at the Tiger conference with @PreeyaNaidu
Healthy food starts with plastic-free soil. Every piece of single-use plastic we throw away risks breaking down into microplastics that contaminate our farmlands. #PlasticFreeJuly #PlasticFreeSoil #HealthyHarvest
@StandardBankZA spent Mandela Day with @ftfa planting sustainable food gardens for underresourced households. 🇿🇦💚 #StandardBank #MandelaDay #FoodSecurity #FTFA #ItCanBe #67Minutes #ActiveCitizenship
What fits in a bucket? Hope, sustainability, and growth. For #MandelaDay, @ftfa and @DBSA_Bank packed DIY Gardens in a Bucket for communities! 🪣🌱 #DBSA #FoodSecurity #FTFA #SustainableDevelopment #67Minutes #CommunityEmpowerment
A look back at some truly unforgettable beginnings. 🌍✨ From planting early seeds with Tata Nelson Mandela and Arnold Schwarzenegger to feeding communities today, our roots run deep. This #MandelaDay, we’re celebrating the farmers keeping the legacy alive. 🌱
Our agricultural soils hold more microplastics than oceans. These tiny toxins are absorbed by roots and end up inside crops. True food security means plastic-free soil. #PlasticFreeJuly #FoodSecurity
