Ola friends,
FTPF is proud to share that our last project planted 5,001 (yes, exactly!) trees in Brazil! As part of our commitment to reforesting the town of Mococa in Sao Paolo state, fruit trees were planted in public parks, schools, and families' backyards.
This project is a joint effort with our local partners at O'lho d'Agua, who assist us with propagation and monitoring of the trees at the nursery, selecting and coordinating project sites, and with community outreach and aftercare. This is an extremely dedicated group of people who first came to FTPF over a decade ago with the vision of seeing fruit trees lining every street and every backyard--something that a generation ago was normal in this tropical climate. Now, thanks to them, our team at FTPF, and the support of donors like you...this dream is closer to becoming a reality than ever before.
But we can't stop now. We are already making plans for planting another several thousand fruit trees at the end of 2022. Please consider donating today to support this work to bring the many beautiful benefits of fruit trees to Mococa!
Muito obrigado,
The FTPF Team
