But where are
the trees being
planted and by
who?
We have chosen to donate to Kenya’s Kijabe Forest. Only one-third of the original high-canopy forest still stands and provides important habitat for biodiversity. The forest is only about 5,000 hectares, but a community of almost 200,000 people depend on it for water, wood, and agriculture. Increasing pressure for land poses significant threats to the region, leading to the over-extraction of resources and illegal timber harvesting.
Planting trees here will help protect this vital ecosystem, promote environmental education, and foster sustainable livelihoods through seed collection and ecotourism.
Why did you choose Kenya?
Andrew and I have a special place in our hearts for Kenya. We filmed a documentary there over the course of a couple years and we fell in love with the country and the people.
When we were there, it became obvious to us that there was little to no support offered when it comes to environmental education and sustainable infrastructure.
We would like to give back by way of planting trees to offset our carbon footprint AND also to help create jobs, spread awareness and instil hope within communities. After all, we believe that CHANGE happens when the community is empowered to take charge!
