With your support, we’re growing literally! 🌱✨

Thanks to you, we’re expanding with a new nursery, allowing us to reach and support even more communities.

Stay tuned for the journey ahead

Hey guys! This is one of our largest sites which we still have responsibility to fill it with a lot of trees as we focused to do. It's located at the top of hills and 5km from the central village.

It is naturally covered by the small bushes which we focused to turn it to the artificial

Well that's nice. Thank you for encouragement and hope 🙏 ❤️

Dear ladies and gentlemen!

We should continue to trust in our tree-planting efforts. While it's not easy, it makes the world a safer place. Planting trees requires time and resources, but it pays back immensely through the many roles trees will play in the near future. Trees absorb

Ladies and gentlemen!

We are currently continuing our nursery activities as shown in the picture above, where our nursery volunteer is watering tree saplings. It's good to know that preparing saplings in our own nursery helps to reduce purchasing costs during the planting season,

At Usambara Biodiversity Conservation Project, everything we do is rooted in community collaboration. Our focus is on creating long-term, sustainable benefits for both the landscape and the people who rely on forests for their livelihoods.

Forest gardens use agroforestry to restore land while supporting food production. Their success depends on the involvement of farmers and communities, making it a truly collaborative approach to sustainable land use.

Throwback to our incredible group of Forest Garden farmers in Tanzania—working together to grow healthy land, strong harvests, and sustainable futures.

Throwback to one of our farmers proudly sharing her thriving Forest Garden—a great example of how reforestation can grow food, income, and resilience all at once.

In every country where we plant, we work with local nurseries to grow the right species for the environment—most of them fruit-bearing trees that support both people and biodiversity.

A quick look back at one of our farmers and her family proudly harvesting the results of their Forest Garden—a reminder of how trees can support both livelihoods and landscapes.

Successful agroforestry starts with thoughtful site selection. Factors like soil quality, water availability, slope, and sunlight all influence how well trees and crops can grow together.

Selecting the right location ensures that trees support—not compete with—agricultural production,

Conifers don’t just survive in tough environments—they often thrive in them.

Many conifer species, like pines and spruces, have needle-shaped leaves coated with a waxy layer that helps conserve water, making them remarkably well adapted to cold, dry, or nutrient-poor conditions.

Redwood National and State Parks in Northern California are home to the tallest trees on Earth—some reaching over 110 meters.

What’s equally remarkable is that these giants thrive in thin, nutrient-poor soils, relying on coastal fog to capture moisture.

With the arrival of spring, it's an ideal time to carry out essential maintenance in our national forests.

Warmer weather and improved access allow for trail repairs, habitat restoration, and early monitoring—crucial tasks that support forest health throughout the year.

Here’s

Spring has arrived—a perfect time to explore and reconnect with our national forests.

As trails reopen and wildlife becomes more active, it's also a critical moment to tread responsibly.

Staying on marked paths, respecting fire regulations, and minimizing impact helps ensure
