Ruthumbi Forest (2019)

Planting site Ruthumbi Forest (2019)

Project: Mount Kenya Trust, Kenya

Camphor trees used to be abundant on the slope of Mt Kenya but after extensive logging, there are just a handful of trees left. We are planting a new site of 10,000 trees to create pockets on new camphor forests and create seed banks for more seedings.
