    Such a beautiful story from Senegal. In his report, Bassirou keeps on mentioning the word 'gereb', which all the way across the Sahel to my beautiful country Eritrea also means 'tree' or 'forest' in our language. In the meanwhile, I bought some pretty large barren land in Rwanda and we are in the process of turning it into a food forest. As Bassirou said: "you will not be the only one eating from it". That is the spirit our world needs and I am so grateful that Ecosia, Trees for the Future and many souls worldwide are leading this revolution for Mother Earth and humanity. Much love!

    Planting to imitate savanna in currently barren flatlands, reintroducing trees (forests) to hilltops is an important task. Making sure they are polycultures to ensure health and food resiliency is equally important.
    Mark Shepard's restoration ag is a good model for just about everywhere.

    That's amazing! All that growth in 5 years! I would love to know what all the trees are. I hope they get to have more woods like these in their community. I live in Wales where we have lots of woods, but we lose trees to storms that are becoming more frequent. The more, denser woods you have, they protect each other from high winds & flooding. So i hope the green area expands to give it more resilience

    I have a few small trees I planted in my tiny South Wales garden & recently took part in a tree planting session with Coed Caerdydd - Cardiff Trees - planting hundreds of mixed saplings adjoining nearby woodland as a volunteer with two classes from local schools & our local council Parks Department.
    When they have their own children in the future those kids will be able to show them the woodland they planted themselves. They loved every muddy minute of it & so did I!
