Who Are we?

We are a quaint hidden gem in the heart of Knysna.

Nestled between the trees, overlooking the beautiful lagoon.

Shepherds Tree is the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of town,

and fill your tummy with some yummy local delights.

 Full of friendly faces and local goods, from our famous Patats to our hand-crafted gifts-

we celebrate all that our lovely locals have to offer! 

​

Shepherds Tree runs as part of a social enterprise and community development project called the Eden Community Initiative, which has breathed life into various local projects focusing on social and economic development.

​

At Shepherds tree our focus is on developing and showcasing an authentic local Knysna experience, inspiring both calm and creativity from the moment you enter our bright green door.

​

Shepherds Tree not only aims to fill your tummy but also your heart.. Our Trading Store runs in support of local crafters whose beautiful and unique products make the perfect gifts for any occasion
