Africa's Gift Trees4Africa - Trees to bind a kingdom!
PROJECT DESCRIPTION

There has been a better or more urgent time to plant a tree. Almost unbelievably we have built more tonnage of structures on our planet than there is biomass! Join us & plant not only with confidence but in the knowledge that we don't just plant trees , but we nurture them & use them to bind soil together to prevent soil erosion & habitat loss in many locations but nowhere more powerfully than in the mountain Kingdom of Lesotho where we have saplings in nurseries ready to go - support us now!

Beneficiaries

  • The General Public / Mankind

    What if absorbing CO2 by planting trees also saved soil erosion, saved & restored habitats, created employment, provided fruit, nitrogen fixed soils for agro - forestry - well get in touch or even better come with us to plant thousands yourself!

  • Number of beneficiaries - 10000

    This is scalable depending upon the support we receive.

Project Outcome Targets

Grow healthy trees that bind together exposed soils which are currently being eroded by wind & rain.

Grow nitrogen fixing trees to improve soil fertility & allow agro forestry to succeed in food crops.

Provide employment by converting the wood harvesters into tree planters & nurturers.

Project Activities

  • Actions speak louder than words we are sharing images of our work to show that what we plant - grows

  • We are asking for donations on our website to plant a variety of species for different purposes.

  • Trees can be dedicated & can have a message displayed in the community in which they are planted.

  • Volunteer visits are possible(CO2 Neutral)for people who wish to plant with the community in Africa.

  • We have successfully supported an increasing number of local tree nurseries to produce more saplings
