United by their love for nature and a shared thirst for exploration, Corné & Lydia embarked on academic and professional ventures across Europe, Australia, South America, and various African countries.
Along the way, they absorbed valuable lessons in environmental management, ecological restoration, and sustainable farming practices from scientists, academics, and local communities.
Inspired by their journey, Corné and Lydia envisioned cultivating the land in harmony with nature, crafting healthy products through eco-friendly techniques promoting environmental preservation.
After seven years in Cape Town's environmental consulting sector, Corné and Lydia embraced a new journey, relocating to the Cederberg to pursue their farming dream.
With Corné's ancestral ties to rooibos farming and Lydia's passion for innovation, they envisioned crafting herbal blends using rooibos as a base.
As the farm expanded and crops diversified, the idea blossomed into reality.
Cederbos Rooibos blends epitomize tradition fused with innovation, capturing the essence of South Africa's diverse biodiversity.
Amidst the flourishing crops, the aromatic allure of the Buchu fields captivated Corné and Lydia, igniting their curiosity about extracting essential oils.
Eager to explore, they delved into the art of steam distillation. Their journey evolved as they expanded production to include buchu, lemongrass, and other indigenous aromatic plants like cape snowbush and cape chamomile.
Through distillation, they uncovered yet another treasure: natural, unpreserved hydrosols, celebrated for their diverse applications and therapeutic benefits.
Embracing consciousness at every step of the production process, the company minimizes its environmental footprint and contributes positively to the communities in which it operates.
Engaging the local community in sustainable farming practices, sharing generational knowledge, and fostering a passion for nature and conservation of natural resources are crucial steps toward building a more environmentally conscious and resilient future for all.
