regularly and protected from the sun with shade cloth
to assure strong, healthy trees develop
June brings the rain and thus the planting season begins…
Students and community members

TWP clean cookstove beneficiaries plant 10 trees each.
These trees will provide fruits like mangos, cashews, and citrus to
increase family nutrition. Trees provide firewood for stoves too.
