Families from Kay Perilin walked over to the nursery to pick up trees today. They have a long walk back home that includes rough terrain and mountain trails, but that didn’t stop this young lady from dressing up for the occasion.
The villagers of Kay Perilin can see that the land on the mountain tops is quickly becoming a desert. And in order to support reforestation, they took 500 varieties of hardwood and fruit trees home to plant.
Our agronomist visits the new tree growers regularly, encouraging them to put lots of mulch on each newly planted tree to retain its moisture. And since emergencies can happen unexpectedly, he reminds them to call us if they need additional water. Whenever an emergency happens, we reach out to our team to send help.
Like all of The Haiti Tree Project’s work, being able to offer help during unexpected emergencies is done through support from our donors.
