Tree Planting In Senegal
This Lifetree Senegal program will restore sustainable food systems in the Senegal Peanut Basin. We are training farmer groups to assess environmental needs and then incorporate market-based agroforestry to improve resilience and diversify income. Mother Trees has the capacity to plant over 25 million trees in the zone in the coming three years. The program supports 6,000 families in shifting to regenerative farming, and it is accelerating forest tree restoration through existing community-based forest management committees. These actions will cool the landscape, improve food security across the peanut basin and protect the biodiversity in three local forests.
