Over the course of the past few months, during the dry season, we have focused most of our energy on creating and maintaing firebreaks around all our reforestation sites.
During the dry season there is always a possibility of fires and we need to stay alert and with our fire protocols working smoothly. This season we had one scare but our team responded rapidly.
Firebreaks are strips were all vegetation is removed along 2 mts on either side of the fenced reforestation sites so the flames can't jump over. They are labor intensive, so your support is essential to keep our reforestation safe. Thank you to all our donors!
Please consider sharing with your friends too, as we are coming into the rainy season and we begin another round of planting!
Stay tuned for more stories.
