#Letters: Bask under the shade of a local Baobab
Did you know that there is a 41-year-old Baobab towering over Salt Rock?
I’m sure that like me, many of you were unaware that Salt Rock has its own Baobab Tree… but it’s true!
At the corner of Basil Hulett Drive and Hugh Dent Drive, you will find a real life Baobab Tree. The plaque on the tree says it was planted by Don Stander in 1984, making it 41 years old. Still just a baby!
So next time you’re driving past the corner of Hugh Dent Drive, why not stop and take the kids to say “Hi” to our very own Baobab Tree. And to Don Stander, I don’t know you, but thank you very much for doing this for us all!
“The true meaning of life is to plant trees, under whose shade you do not expect to sit.” – Nelson Henderson.
