Plant thousands of fruit trees to turn African wastelands into biodiverse Forest Garden oases!

The Forest Garden Program by Trees for the Future is a simple, replicable, and scalable approach with proven success. How? It starts with trees. Through their 4-year training program, called the Forest Garden Approach, farmers plant thousands of trees that protect and bring nutrients back to the soil. This helps farmers grow a variety of fruits and vegetables, increases their income and access to food (even in the first year!), all while improving the environment.

Many charities are all talk and no skittles, but Trees.org has been nominated by several orgs are one of the best charities for reforestation in 2021, since 2014 they have over 225 million trees planted and they are well on their way to have over 1 BILLION trees planted before 2030.

Leaf through their 2021 Impact Report to see the fantastic things they accomplish!

The gist:

Biodiverse Permaculture Agroforestry is the name of this gamechanger!

A Forest Garden measures about 1 Acre (4000 sqm) involves approximately 2500 fruitful trees, mostly in its "living fence" but also all through the garden part where plants and bushes are grown in addition. it costs about $1000.

Nature benefits! People benefit! The position of women in their societies and the future of their children benefits, the good earth benefits from the right approach to the problems we all face. Check their extensive FAQ.

Sweet - how can we help?

Folks: For roughly every $0.25 donated, Trees.org can plant a tree, including a program of education and stewardship which yields considerably more than that tree alone!

We,in this fundraiser, should be able to put 40,000 trees in the ground, maybe even many more than that! Al benefactors from all of the world for Kenya, Mali, Senegal, Uganda, Tanzania, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad and Gambia. Driving desertification back, driving climate change back, making the most of the future, not just over there where people have it hardest, but all over the world; a greener and better future for the earth and for mankind.
