ALWAYS ROOM FOR MORE: Oakhurst Farm Cottages & AfriCamps
Oakhurst Farm has history in the Garden Route - covering approx. 640 hectares of land - of which 200 hectares is pristine fynbos and indigenous forest - the farm is run commercially by the Crowther family - sixth generation descendants of the original purchaser, Henry Dumbleton, who bought the land in 1820. It is one of the few remaining large working dairy farms along the Garden Route but is also well known for its stylish accommodation and the wide variety of outdoor activities around the farm for their guests, including hiking trails to the waterfalls, horse-riding, fishing on the dam or cycling through the indigenous forest.
The Precious Tree Project team has history with Oakhurst Farm - the Crowthers’ inherited a farm not only with many hectares of pristine indigenous forest but they also inherited highly invasive non indigenous trees such as wattle, blackwood and pine. While these serve as a great resource for the farm’s requirements (firewood for the guests, mulch, etc.) clearing them is an ongoing challenge and a costly one at that. The Crowthers’ have remained committed to the clearing process over the years as well as continuously planting out more pockets of endemic species on their farm. On Saturday 4th September, in celebration of Arbour month and as part of their ongoing tree planting efforts, we joined forces with them yet again and shared a memorable morning with their weekend guests planting out a small bio-mimicked forest mix of true yellowwood, boekenhout, outeniqua yellowwood, wild peach and tree fuchsia at their AfriCamps site.
Thank you Jake and Claire for always making room for more indigenous trees!

CHOOSING GREEN TO HONOUR PURPLE: BTS is a South Korean pop band with a large number of big international hits and a very big following across the globe, known as the BTS Army. The BTS Army have a base here in South Africa and this year they are celebrating their 8th Anniversary by gifting trees in honour and support of BTS’s Purple Pave Project.
“When we think about generosity, we think of you. When we think about kindness, we think of you. When we think about humility and care for mankind and for our planet, we always think of you. You’ve inspired millions to make our world a better place today, but also for tomorrow. For you, for us, we pay your example forward. We purple you.”
“Our gift of trees is in your honour as part of the "Purple Pave for BTS" Project. We purple you.”
"… ‘It's okay … when I say 1, 2, 3, forget it. Erase all sad memories. Hold my hand & smile’ .. Our gift in your honour as part of the ‘Purple pave for BTS’ Project“
“Borahae BTS!”
“Borahae” - “I purple you” - is a phrase combining two Korean words: Violet (“bora”) and I love you (“saranghae”) and was coined during a 2016 concert by Kim Taehyung (a.k.a “V” of BTS). “Borahae” implies “I'll love you till the end of days” since violet (purple) is the last colour of the rainbow.
The BTS Army says thank you to #BTS for the work they do and we say thank you to the South African BTS Army for choosing a green project to celebrate and honour a purple one.
