Welcome to Haiti, country number 70 to join our global community!

Thanks to Charles Brunel and his project, Agrinotech, Haiti became the 70th country to join our global tree-planting community! Welcome, Charles!

In case you missed the story of Agrinotech’s incredible work in Haiti, you can read the story here.  

Of course, reaching 70 countries is a great accomplishment. However, what is even more important is the number of people (and other living beings) who benefit from our expanded global community. With an extended global community, we can learn more about the challenges faced by our one human family. At the same time, we can also share our knowledge and experience, together as one human family, and help each other. Plus, we become inspired by each other!

Now, we are inviting you to join our global community of tree-planters! Have a look at our global tree-planting map below, and see if your country is represented (click on the map to navigate):

 

Click on the map to open the interactive map and to navigate this map.

 

Is your country represented? And, can you see your own trees and story on the global tree-planting map? If not, please join us! It is easy. You can use the 4-Pillars of Tree-Planting as a guide. Additionally, we have useful tree-planting guides to help you even more.

Do some research about which tree to plant, when and where to plant, and how to plant the tree to achieve its maximum potential. Once you have your tree / seed / sapling, you can get planting.

Then, start with your motivation. Consider why you want to plant a tree. Then, keep your awareness strong throughout the planting process. After planting, you can dedicate your actions and efforts. Finally, you can fill with delight and rejoice in the beautiful action you just performed!

Please remember to take photos of the tree(s) you planted, and please remember to fill out this form on our website to tell us about your planting activity. Once you have submitted this form, your story and photos will also appear on the global tree-planting map, and we can write a story about you and your planting!

A very big THANK YOU to our whole global community. Without your support, generosity, and kindness, we would not have been able to grow as we did. We look forward to the ongoing growth and development of our community, and to keep sharing wonderful stories with you.

 

Please share this. Thank you!
