January - Tree update

Thanks to all the orders placed by our lovely customers on our website this January, we are delighted to have donated a number of trees to be planted in Rwanda.

The trees planted will help a women's cooperative, led by a local farmer Agnes Uwifashije, to revive land in Mukura. Planting trees will help add nutrients to soil, while controlling run-off erosion. When properly managed, these trees will provide the local farmers with firewood, climbing bean poles and fodder for their animals. For food security and income generation, farmers will also plant avocado, lemon, and tree tomatoes.

If you placed an order this month - Thank you!
