Our team has successfully planted 194 hectares of trees using seedlings from our nursery, the second-largest in the country. We’re focusing on over 20 different tree species, including native varieties, fruit-bearing trees like wild mango and African plum, and shade trees. This diverse approach benefits both the environment and local communities.

Our goal is to plant 16 million trees over the next seven years. By partnering with local communities, we aim to restore degraded land and sequester carbon. This initiative also helps maintain vital habitats in the Congo Basin region of Cameroon, including those where the majestic African lion still roams, contributing to the overall health of the ecosystem.

The project is also generating job opportunities, enhancing water quality, and offering training in sustainable practices. By establishing community-driven nurseries and supporting local facilities, we are positively impacting the everyday lives of local communities in the region.
