Your branch needs you

Jou Plek in die Kogelberg

Ons het onlangs met Christine Dreyer se hulp, die vertaling van “Your Place in the Kogelberg” na Afrikaans voltooi. SucceedGroup het dit in die regte formaat beskikbaar gestel en ons is so te sê klaar met die elektroniese weergawe.

Ons wil graag ook hierdie boek laat druk vir ons Afrikaanse lede en gemeentskap. Om hierdie rede, soek ons ‘n borg vir die druk van Jou Plek in die Kogelberg. As u kan help of iemand ken wat dalk kan, kontak asseblief die Redakteur by kogelbergbotsoc@gmail.com

By voorbaat dankie! 

This month sees the Kogelberg Branch of the Botanical Society’s launch of Your Place in the Kogelberg e-book version.

In our ongoing effort to introduce people to the Kogelberg area, with the dedicated help of Christine Dreyer, Your Place in the Kogelberg, has been translated into Afrikaans.

To self publish books is an expensive exercise and we are in search of a sponsorship partner to fund the printing of our Afrikaans version of the book.  If you feel you would like to be a part of contributing to this legacy please contact the Editor at kogelbergbotsoc@gmail.com
