We are green, we are wow, we forest

We are green, we are wow, we forest

We love challenges, and together with We Forest we have set out to actively contribute to the reforestation of forests and do our little bit in this fight against climate change.

For every order over €50 we contribute to the planting of a tree in Tanzania.

PROJECT SUMMARY

In Mara, the extraction of resources from forests has caused local smallholder farmers to struggle with infertile soil, low water tables and erratic rainfall. Seedlings are grown in nurseries and distributed to the people that need it most. Through agroforestry systems on their farms and schools, the farmers and institutional beneficiaries are able to grow their own fodder, fuelwood, fiber, fruit and timber, and so no longer need to depend on forests for consumption or income generation.

WHY IS INTERVENTION NEEDED?

In the Mara Region of Tanzania, the untenable extraction of resources from forests has negatively impacted water, soil and climate, causing local smallholder farmers to struggle with infertile soil, low water tables and erratic rainfall.
