French Guiana boasts over 1,500 tree species and is one of the world’s five High-Biodiversity Wilderness Areas (HBWA). This diversity is under threat from gold mining and increasing urbanization. In addition, there is little know-how today to preserve local tree species. This project involves planting 625 trees to establish a seed orchard with species endemic to this particular territory, which, over time, will help preserve and restore the natural environment currently under threat.

In the valley of the river Zio, the soil is extremely degraded and so largely infertile for subsistence crops (taros, yams…). The villagers also lack fuelwood and lumber. Together let’s plant 40,000 fertiliser trees in 4 villages to provide the inhabitants with food and wood, and to protect the gallery forest of the river Zio.
In this small village of 600 inhabitants, the soil is extremely degraded and so largely infertile for subsistence crops (taros, yams…). The villagers also lack fuelwood and lumber. Together let’s plant trees to provide the villagers with food and wood, and to protect the gallery forest of the river Zio.
In the sensitive area of Itasy Lake, the Mahavotra project is helping 700 farm families to change their practices towards agroecology and the establishment of forest and agroforestry systems.

In Kenya, most of the coffee production is provided by small scale farmers weakened by coffee prices’ variations, difficult weather conditions and a high cost of inputs. Thanks to this project, more than 2,750 smallholder farmers will be trained, over 365,750 remaining trees (including coffee trees) will be planted and more than 11,400 beneficiaries will take advantage of its impacts.
In the Sidama area in southern Ethiopia, most of the coffee production is provided by small scale farmers weakened by coffee prices’ variations, difficult weather conditions and a high cost of inputs. The plantation of 297,000 remaining trees in coffee plantations, using an agroforestry model, will ensure the long-term sustainability of family farming, reduce soil erosion, optimise land use and increase revenue for more than 5,500 farmers through the plantation of forest and fruit species.
Let’s help the Lisu and Naxi minorities recover their ancestral skills in gathering and preparing medicinal plants, in addition to planting fruit trees and trees that benefit the soil, water, and biodiversity.
The Lisu and Naxi minorities need help to recover their ancestral skills in gathering and preparing medicinal plants. Planting 5,073 fruit and environmental trees, in addition to medicinal plants, will help tackle the high level of soil erosion in the region, enrich biodiversity and provide an additional income for local inhabitants through sales of medicinal plants and fruit harvested. This project builds on a first plantation plan in the village of Liming in 2020.

Yves is a crop farmer in the Beauce region of France. He works in organic and conservation agriculture and is keen to expand this approach to include more sustainable farming methods by planting trees on his land. Introducing 6,579 trees of over 50 different species will reduce the significant loss of soil and fertility and enrich the surrounding biodiversity.

Marie and Olivier, winegrowers in Bouches-du-Rhône, are convinced trees have a role to play in the farming system. By introducing them, they wish to create a more pleasant and functional working environment, improve water management and prevent the risk of erosion, while protecting the vines from the effects of climate change. Planting 1,246 trees of 28 different species will allow them to tackle these challenges.

Pierre is a winegrower and cognac producer in Charente. His activities are carried out using organic farming methods. To go further, the winegrower wishes to engage in agroforestry by integrate trees into his vineyards. The planting of 428 trees of about ten different species will help to protect the vines from the effects of climate change, such as excessive heat and late frosts, and to enrich biodiversity.
