This little guy is a mudskipper—part fish, part land explorer.

Found in healthy mangrove ecosystems like those in Madagascar, mudskippers can breathe through their skin and even “walk” on land using their fins.

Mangroves can survive in saltwater by filtering out up to 90% of the salt through their roots—or excreting it through their leaves. It’s one of the reasons they thrive along Madagascar’s coasts where few other trees can.

Cashews are centre stage in our nursery at the moment, as we gear up for the coming planting season. These lovely trees are actually related to cactii - they have waxy leaves that reduce transpiration and are able to store up water in their trunks. This makes them incredibly drought

Mangrove forests are vital for coastal stability, biodiversity, and carbon storage, acting as a natural barrier against storms and erosion.

Fun fact: Mangroves can filter up to 90% of salt from seawater before absorbing it, allowing them to thrive in harsh coastal environments where

When we wait for the rains to come then sometimes the seedlings need a bit of irrigation to keep them from getting thirsty. Lois shows how one woman can carry 10 jerry cans from the planting site back to the watersource for refilling. Well done Lois!

Close up of the grafting process that enables our farmers to improve the value of their mango crop. The attached graft will grow into a branch that will ultimately yield larger, juicier fruit.

#FoodSecurity #PovertyRelief

By grafting high quality fruit stems on to existing mango trees you can signficantly improve the size and juiciness of the resultant harvest.

Mangrove propagules are planted vertically in muddy ground, mimicking their natural process.

This helps them anchor securely, allowing roots to penetrate the soil and shoots to reach sunlight.

This method ensures high survival rates and supports the rapid growth of thriving mangrove

Mangrove trees provide a unique advantage in reforestation efforts with their easily accessible seedlings, known as propagules.

These propagules grow directly on the tree and can be harvested once they mature, ready to plant immediately without additional preparation.
