Mondi Zimele's Forestry Partners Programme is a project that offers multi-faceted support to emerging timber growers in northern KwaZulu-Natal. The project hinges on the distribution of high-quality eucalyptus seedlings, the provision of technical support and guidance on the ground and connecting small growers to the market once their timber is harvested.
Through its agents on the ground - Khulanathi and Awethu Forestry - Mondi Zimele distributes an impressive 500 000 plants a year and engages with 3 435 emerging growers. The implementing agents coordinate the delivery of between 10-20 000 tonnes of timber from these small growers to the Mondi Richards Bay Mill, proving to be an important source of available fibre. The project has generated R803 million in revenue and is a key pillar of economic development in a region where jobs and opportunities are scarce.
This film features some of the small growers involved, shining a light on their unique stories and experiences, which are intrinsically connected to the land, the trees and the passing seasons that characterize life in Zululand, in the north-eastern corner of South Africa.
