The Stellenbosch Interest Group (SIG) will hold its Annual General Meeting on 25 May 2022 at 18:30.
The group’s objective, firstly, is the protection of common heritage, which is inclusive of both the built and the natural environment.
Secondly, the preservation of the unique character of Stellenbosch and its surrounds.
Ernst van Jaarsveld will be the guest speaker and will be presenting a talk about “conserving and enhancing the wealth of plant life on Babylonstoren.”
A specialist in succulent plants and other drought-adapted flora, especially from the family Lamiaceae, he actively promotes ecological gardening and the cultivation of xerophytic species.
The meeting will take place on the Stellenbosch University campus, in the Chamber of Mines (Geology) building on the corner of Ryneveld Street and Merriman Avenue on the ground floor.
