South Africa is not well-endowed with indigenous forests and those that remain are known to be degraded and declining at an alarming rate.

This includes small-scale growers (woodlots), woodlands and indigenous forests. Community forestry can be defined as tree growing and managed by the people for the people. This encompasses activities such as agroforestry, woodlots and tree planting in urban and peri-urban areas and city park.
