Calling All Gardeners to Participate!

This project reminds me of when I was in the Philippines. We volunteered to maintain the cleanliness and tree planting of a particular area in my home town. In fact, when I went home three years ago, I went to visit the area where I used to help clean and I saw the trees that I personally planted are getting bigger and taller. I love what we have done!
