OUR EFFECTIVE TREE GROWING STRATEGIES
We believe that Effective tree growing goes beyond simply planting seedlings. It’s a well-planned, long-term process that ensures trees survive, grow, and provide ecological and community benefits. Below are the key strategies that lead to successful tree growing:
SITE SELECTION AND ASSESSMENT
Before planting, we do the following: Assess the soil quality, water availability, sunlight, and history of the area. Identify threats such as erosion, flooding, or human activity. We always choose locations that will benefit the most from restoration (e.g., degraded lands, riverbanks, coastal areas).
CHOOSING THE RIGHT SPECIES
Planting the right trees in the right place is crucial: Select native species that are adapted to the local environment and climate. In restoration areas, mix different species to improve biodiversity. In mangrove planting, match species to specific tidal zones (e.g., Rhizophora for low-tide areas, Avicennia for high-tide zones).
RAISING HEALTHY SEEDLINGS
Strong seedlings grow into strong trees: Using tree nurseries to grow seedlings in a controlled, protected environment. Ensuring seedlings receive proper care: regular watering, shading, and protection from pests and disease. Transplanting only when the seedlings are mature and healthy.
COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION
Community involvement makes tree planting sustainable: Training local people in planting, nursery care, and tree maintenance. Involving schools, youth groups, and women's associations. We belive that when people understand the value of trees, they’re more likely to protect and care for them.
LINKING WITH LIVELIHOODS
We make tree planting part of the local economy by: Introduce fruit trees, medicinal plants, or agroforestry to provide food and income. In coastal areas, restored mangroves can support fisheries and eco-tourism. When people benefit from trees, they are more likely to protect them.
