Mini Nursery Training Workshop: We organised a training workshop with Matt, from Six Kingdoms, this month to educate our enthusiastic bunch of Garden Route residents who have signed up into our Mini Satellite Nursery Program. They are all on board to locally grow endemic and indigenous forest trees on their properties for our future needs.

Thank you Matt for your input and for all the sponsors who make this possible – a percentage of your donation goes to training and education, and job creation. Much gratitude from all present!

Our young workforce kick-started the year off with a day of training-on-the-job, facilitated by Matt, from Six Kingdoms. We used the opportunity to teach them how to plant out Forest Elder seedlings (rapos) … bagging them correctly, feeding/watering them, and as importantly, how to handle them with care.

30% of every tree sponsored through Precious Tree Project is allocated to social upliftment, training and job creation, and this was a taste of things to come for these young men.

We may not be in the position to employ them on a full-time basis yet, but the vision is to create work for them from your sponsorship, and enable them a higher standard of living in the Garden Route. Learn more about the PTP Workforce.
