Garden
Trafalgar High School
This garden is a registered restoration garden within the Fynbos Corridor Collaboration. The garden caretaker has committed:
  • To support planting of primarily locally indigenous vegetation (note: we don't expect the garden to currently be there, but the caretaker is willing to work toward this goal).
  • To work on removing alien and invasive species.
  • To periodically provide updates on the status of the garden.
  • When possible, to share seeds or cuttings from the garden's indigenous plants with other members of our network.

This is garden ID pending in our corridor.

Description

Trafalgar High School opened in 1912 in the District Six area, Cape Town. The school was the first High School for Coloured people. When the school opened it had 60 students and 5 educators.

Greenpop had its first Fynbos for the Future plant day here in July 2019. As of October 2021, they've had 3 plant days and the garden currently boasts 797 fynbos plants.
