Dear Member,
Weβre excited to invite you to another impactful Live Planting Session with our planting partner, FOLT (Friends of Lake Tanganyika), supporting agroforestry initiatives in Tanzania. Join us on November 14th, 2024, at 2:00 PM CET as we plant 1,000 diverse trees, including Avocado, Albizia, Cedrela, Maesopsis, and Acacia polyacantha. This effort promotes biodiversity and strengthens community resilience in partnership with local stakeholders.
Our previous planting session on October 10th marked an incredible start in partnership with FOLT, showcasing the transformative power of tree planting. Hosted by Rene Post, Founder of Planting on Demand, and Said Katensi, CEO of FOLT, the session shared valuable insights and allowed viewers to witness the direct impact on local communities.

Why Are We Planting Diverse Trees in Tanzania for This Live Planting Session?
Planting diverse trees in Tanzania for this live planting session brings significant ecological, economic, and social benefits. Diverse tree species create resilient ecosystems by improving soil health, enhancing biodiversity, and preventing erosion. Each tree type contributes unique strengths: for example, some trees enrich the soil with nitrogen, while others provide shade or help retain water. Economically, a mix of speciesβincluding fruit-bearing trees like avocadoβoffers communities sources of food and income, supporting local livelihoods and promoting food security. Furthermore, a variety of trees helps create a balanced environment where plants, animals, and people can thrive together. This approach fosters a healthier, more sustainable ecosystem, aligning with our goal to create long-term positive impacts in Tanzaniaβs landscapes and communities!
