Program Details

We need volunteers who are passionate about promoting a greener environment and willing to help us plant as many trees as possible! Activities include digging holes for the trees, applying manure or fertiliser, watering the growing trees and getting rid of weeds. However, if you arrive during the dry season because of water shortages planting trees may not be possible and activities will be focused more on periodically watering the existing young trees, weeding and digging holes in preparation for planting in the next rainy season. We also keep chicken and have a small kitchen garden and other construction projects around the farm so we are also open to other forms of help around the farm.
