The goal of the tree planting initiative was to contribute to the conservation of the water towers and reduction of poverty levels in Bomet that is part of the Mau Water Tower as pilot regions. More than 20,000 tree seedlings were planted by more than 200 farmers as well as 800 tree seedlings planted by two schools (Chemaner and Kipkoligo). An assorted certified seeds were also purchased from KEFRI and given to famers, and as a result more than 63 nursery beds established comprising of different species of indigenous trees. Currently, farmers are selling extra seedlings to get an income.

This is a good initiative
