Our mission is to provide a solution to desertification in Kenya and combat Global Warming around the world.
This mission requires the generation on a large scale of alternative sources of fast growing trees, thereby turning the deserts of Kenya into forests.
We train and enable forest communities in Kenya to understand and adopts conservation as a part of their daily practice, and thereby become forest guardians.
Our training of the Masai has let to the germination of 75,000 trees in our nursery. 5,000 trees have been planted out in the community. 30 Masai, including 6 women have been trained in leadership. This is the first time Masai women have been involved in leadership. 7 Masai work full time in the nursery and 7 schools have received trees for planting out.
Visit our website and see how we are combating global warming by reforesting Kenya.
