What does it take to prepare thousands of trees for planting? 🌴

In West Bengal, India, our partners at Symagine Solutions are getting ready for the planting season.

Community members help raise and distribute seedlings, and community leaders (many of them women) train others in how to plant and care for them 🌱

Households receive a small number of saplings at a time, so each tree can get the care it needs.

This is what collective restoration looks like 💚
