About Us
Welcome to The Urban Jungle Co.
Where nature meets intention and sustainability grows alongside style. We’re more than just a plant store — we’re your guide to creating a lush, mindful space that inspires wellness, calm, and connection.
🌿 Our Story
The Urban Jungle Co. sprouted from humble roots in May 2019, when I opened The Farmyard Nursery in the beautiful coastal village of St. Francis Bay, Eastern Cape.
By 2024, I knew it was time to grow beyond the garden gate. That’s when The Urban Jungle Co. took root online — bringing our curated, eco-conscious collection to plant lovers across South Africa.
🏡 Why “The Urban Jungle Co.”?
The name reflects my desire to create a personal oasis at home — and help others do the same. Whether you live in a city apartment or a beach cottage, we believe every space deserves a touch of green.
🌱 What Makes Us Different
We don’t just talk sustainability — we live it.
- We grow many of our own plants, including bestsellers like Philodendron Xanadu and Ficus Lyrata Bambino.
- We partner with ethical local growers.

🌊 Rooted in Community
