Portugal – Landscape restoration in the Faia Brava Reserve

Northeastern Portugal is known for its special Montado landscape, with beautiful grasslands and trees. Unfortunately, more and more nature is disappearing due to forest fires and large-scale grain production. That is why we support our afforestation partner Trees for All to restore the landscape together with their local partner ATNatureza. How? A total of 8,000 […]

Pennsylvania North America – Keystone

Adding 513 native trees to the Pennsylvania landscape together with One Tree Planted will improve the Bay’s water quality by stabilizing stream and river banks, filtering water flow from agricultural, urban, and abandoned mine land environments. Unprecedented resources and streamlined access to diverse species of high-quality trees and supplies to encourage healthy forest buffer implementation. […]

Australia – The Big Scrub rainforest region – A critically endangered ecosystem

The Big Scrub is the name of the remnant rainforest in the Byron Shire region of northern New South Wales. Before agricultural clearing it was the largest expanse of lowland subtropical rainforest in Australia, covering an area of approximately 75,000 hectares where an incredible array of species grew.    Tragically European settlers cleared almost 99% […]

Restoring forests at Landgoed Zuylestein

The beautiful country estate Landgoed Zuylestein is located in Leersum, in Utrecht. Trees for All is working there on the restoration of a monumental forest, which sustained serious damage in 2021 due to heavy storms. A strong fall wind, as it is known, combined with extreme rainfall and gusts, meant that many trees were blown […]

Belgium – From grassland to living forest in Flanders

Near the Flemish Luciebos, a large grassland of 11 hectares lies in between a number of nature reserves. Currently, this piece of land has hardly any value for local nature. Only English ryegrass, a type of grass used as fodder, grows there. Because only one species grows there, the grassland is not an attractive environment […]

Sulawesi Indonesia – More tropical rainforest

On Sulawesi, we are supporting Trees for All, in planting 160,000 trees to transform monotonous grassland back into tropical rainforest. We are doing this together with the Masarang Foundation, founded by Dr Willie Smits. The project also provides work and income to the surrounding communities. In this way, we are restoring a unique ecosystem in […]

The Netherlands – Greening the countryside

Together with Trees for All, we are working on greening the countryside in Friesland, Overijssel and Gelderland. We do this by planting landscape elements such as hedges, rows of trees, pollard willows or wooded banks. In this way we enhance the unique Dutch landscapes and the habitats of countless plants and animals. Landscape elements are […]

Vietnam – Restoring Dune Forests

The coast of Central Vietnam is increasingly battered by tropical storms and hurricanes. Its natural dune vegetation has all but disappeared, leaving villages in the hinterland vulnerable to floods as a result. This project adds to the restoration of dune forests, provides natural coastal protection and enables local people to develop a resilient, climate-proof ecosystem. […]

Ghana – Bongo District

The Bongo District is one of the driest areas in the region. Due to desertification the shores of the VEA Dam are subjected to erosion and salinization. Trees for All joins forces to restore the original riparian forests and, by planting valuable tree species, create a more robust form of small-scale agriculture. Click here for […]

Bolivia – Reforestation and Agroforestry

The Bolivian Andes are characterized by a rugged landscape with mountains well over 6,000 metres (20,000 feet) high. Unfortunately, large sections of the Andes mountain range have been deforested for firewood, small-scale cattle-farming and extension of agriculture. Shortage of trees and non-sustainable use of land lead to enormous water deficits in the area. Droughts cause […]

Spain – Restoration of Parkland

Impressive Sierra de Maria-Los Velez Natural Park is situated in Andalusia. Recently, former farming land has been added, but indigenous species of trees which used to grow here have all but disappeared. That is why we are going to restore the parkland. We will do this together with our partner, Alvelal, planting over 43,000 trees […]

Borneo – Restoring the tropical forest

Along with the Borneo Nature Foundation, Sebangau National Park rangers and the local population, we are going to plant 100,000 trees. This will restore 250 hectares of Sebangau that was destroyed by fire. Our reforestation project will ensure more habitat for the orang-utan, as well as sequestering carbon and creating jobs for people from the […]

Mexico – Mangrove Recovery

This project takes place in the Los Tuxtlas Biosphere Reserve in the Gulf of Mexico. This is where beautiful mangrove forests originate. These forests form an important connection between the land and the sea. Unfortunately, more and more mangrove is disappearing due to logging and forest fires. This has disastrous consequences for the ecosystem and […]

Madagascar – Restoration of Unique Forest

Madagascar is one of the countries in the world with the most endemic plant and animal species. These unique species are found only on the island and nowhere else. However, the country’s overwhelming biodiversity is under severe pressure due to unsustainable land use and climate change. Together with the Zazamalala Foundation, we will transform 150 […]

The Netherlands – New Loam Forest in Het Groene Woud

The forests of Het Groene Woud, in Brabant, are home to many sorts of plants and animals. The ‘loam forests’, in particular, have high levels of biodiversity, corresponding to the relatively wet soil that gave rise to them. From both a national and international viewpoint, the scarcity of loam forests makes it vital to expand […]

Uganda – Rainforest Restoration and Protection

Kibale National Park is one of the most beautiful rain forests in East-Africa, harbouring a wealth of flora and fauna. As a result of former land use a part of Kibale has been overgrown by Elephant grass. Since 2018 Trees for All has contributed to tree planting in these grassed-over areas. Click here for more […]

The Netherlands – Limburg and Noord-Brabant

Hotels for Trees and Trees for All are supporting Limburgs Landschap to establish more than 30 hectares of new forest, divided into 26 parcels of various sizes.
