#FoodSecurity #Agroforestry

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,

This young oak is making its way up in the heart of a dense forest—slowly growing into one of the future giants of the canopy.

Beavers play a surprisingly big role in the health of Canadian forests.

By building dams, they create wetlands that improve water retention, support biodiversity, and help regulate local ecosystems.

Their natural engineering also reduces erosion and creates vital habitats for

Here, one of our planters is using a unique method that works exclusively with mangroves: direct propagule planting.

The seedlings she holds are young propagules collected from mature mangrove trees, ready to be planted directly into the coastal soil to take root and thrive.
