Tree Planting Fund - Food Forest Project
Donation protected
We're raising money to buy trees for our food forest project - a long held dream and an integral part of our Permaculture design for this land, the reasons for this are multiple:
Restoring empty agricultural land to a forested ecosystem
Sequestering carbon through the planting of more than 100 trees
Recreating habitat for birds, animals and insects
Providing food security for our family and community
Creating a teaching tool and demonstration site to share knowledge
Working towards a better future for our children
"A forest garden, replete with fruit and foliage, blooms, birds and insects, mammals and fungi, fascinating scents and sounds, can be a work of art comparable to any of humankind’s highest cultural attainments” Robert Hart
We have already raised 1700 Euros towards this project on our own but have now got a quote for the full implementation costs and we need a minimum of 1500 Euros to realise this dream. For the ecosystem to flourish it's best to plant all the trees together, and during the colder months. We need to plant the trees this month (March 2020) otherwise we have to wait another year, which is a year lost in the growth and establishment of this forest garden.
We would be immensely grateful for support of any kind, to help us reach this goal. For our future, the future of the planet and for Manu's future. To us, nothing is more hopeful and forward thinking than planting trees for the generations to come.
