Fruit and Timber Tree Seedlings for Biodiversity

Dear Friend,

Thank you very much for your support to our initiative growing fruit and timber trees for biodiversity. The growing of seedlings is a crucial step in the process and which sometimes is not taken great priority. There is a need for seedlings to be robust, coming from healthy plants and of superior quality because high-quality seedlings means good plantations. Our approach in this area is to select trees with good genetic material and then establish small seedling nurseries in the villages where the tree growing is done. In this way, we ensure that the seedlings is grown well and that mortality due to transport in long distances is minimized. This reporting period we are able to establish 1 seedling nursery in a village and we plan to establish some more as the months go by. Your help in our initiative is highly appreciated. We badly need to grow trees in order to help mitigate climate change.

Very sincerely yours,

Jed Christian Sayre
