We value every voice. We hold full team vision sessions for every project to ensure diverse ideas are heard and empower decision-making in every role.

Our Cape Town Field Office

Beyond our daily, weekly, and monthly online huddles, we love to gather in person at our Field Office located within the vibrant Eco Education Hub in Woodstock. This isn't just a workspace; it's also our dedicated propagation area for the plants that bring life to our urban greening projects across Cape Town.

Our team members are welcome to work from this beautiful office anytime, enjoying the inspiring views or even getting their hands in the soil. It's a special spot where the Cape Town team comes together, and we warmly invite volunteers to join us there to help nurture our green future.
