A burgeoning indigenous forest has been planted on the De Rust Farm in Elgin, home of Paul Clüver Family Wines in an initiative aimed at furthering natural and community sustainability.

Pedal Project

Pedal Project offers a trail therapy program for at-risk youths in Macassar, Strand, and Jamestown, outside Stellenbosch. Through physical activity in a natural environment combined with mental and emotional development opportunities, the program encourages the formation of positive values and healthy habits, fostering resilient young people both on and off the bike.
