An elected official from the community of La Hatte, Kasek Gasner, is planting 400+ trees on his land for his community. He took a mixture of avocado, breadfruit, and Fwenn (indigenous forest trees).
You can see the small mounds of dirt and a small tree planted in each one. They did a nice job spreading out the trees so they can grow to have a full canopy with space between them for other tree species to be planted in the spring.
The freshly planted trees have to fight the new experience of strong sun once leaving the nursery. Kasek Gasner says he will keep them watered but he has to wait until the evening to not burn the leaves.
Avocado trees are good at handling transplant and hot sun.
