Hello friends,
Today, we want to show you the important work delivered by our Ecoguardians in the field. They have been working hard to prepare the terrain for our upcoming planting day.
As you can see, the conditions are very extreme, and they must protect themselves from the scorching heat while spending long hours getting the land ready.
They have to mark the plots following a designed scheme and then proceed to open the holes for the trees. This is no easy task; the soil is hard, and they must use force to achieve this. Sometimes, even with the help of earth augers, to help them drill deeper in the soil.
Everything is ready now! This week, we will come back with the trees to set them in place.
Thanks to your support, we can keep up the good work.

Hola amig@,
Hoy queremos mostrarte el importante trabajo que realizan nuestros Ecoguardians sobre el terreno. Han estado trabajando duro para preparar el terreno de cara a nuestra próxima jornada de plantación.
Como podrás ver, las condiciones son muy duras y deben protegerse del calor abrasador mientras pasan largas horas preparando la tierra.
Tienen que marcar las parcelas siguiendo un esquema diseñado y, a continuación, proceder a abrir los agujeros para los árboles. No es una tarea fácil; el suelo es duro y deben emplear fuerza para lograrlo. A veces, incluso con la ayuda de barrenas, para poder perforar más profundamente en el suelo.
¡Ya está todo listo! Esta semana volveremos con los árboles para plantarlos.
Gracias a tu apoyo, podemos seguir con este buen trabajo.
