Enlisting children to love trees

Dear Friend,

Warm greetings and thank you very much for your generous support to our initiative growing trees in order to improve biodiversity and provide income to small farmers. In the past year we encouraged farmers to grow trees by informing them that trees will have multiple benefits which include income, shade, food, shelter and so on and some of them have started tree farming. We train them to plant trees in open spaces in their farms as well as in boundaries while they also grow food crops such as corn and legumes. One of the problems we found out that after planting the trees are not cared for and grasses takes over. In this case we are enlisting the help of children and youth so that they help in taking care of the trees. We were able to train and deploy 25 of them this reporting period and we will engage some more in the coming months. Again, thank you so much for your help.

Very sincerely yours,

Cesario Sayre
