QUARTERLY REPORTS
The Friends of Rietvlei began as a community group focused on protecting the Rietvlei Reserve and Milnerton Lagoon. Over time, our efforts have expanded to cover the broader Table Bay Nature Reserve, which now includes: Rietvlei Wetlands, Milnerton Lagoon, Milnerton Beach, Milnerton Racecourse, Zoarvlei Wetlands, Diep River, and the Parklands Fynbos Corridor.
Below are links to key reports and documents related to these areas.
