MOONTREE HISTORY
As a little girl, Kaz was fortunate to spend a lot of time in rural areas and on a farm. She was always intrigued by traditional ways and would befriend an elder wherever she went. She would stop on the side of the road and enquire what a Gogo was harvesting and what this would be used for. Her journey continued in the majestic Dukuduku forest in Northern Zululand where, as a young adult, she was blessed to be able to live, study & work. Here she met Mr. Mnguni, a local inyanga (Traditional herbalist), and a great friendship was formed. After some years of travel and inspiration she settled down to raise a family in the Assagay Valley where she and her daughters' father developed a herb farm, growing medicinal and culinary herbs in an organic way that became part of Moontree's story. Kaz now continues the legacy, living off-grid in the Dargle Valley of KZN, South Africa, offering healing retreats, nutritional programs and more.
