Trees for the Future

Trees for the Future

Description

Trees for the Future is a non-profit agro-forestry resource center based in Silver Spring, Maryland, helping people in developing countries improve their rural livelihoods through the introduction of environmentally sustainable land management projects focused on beneficial tree planting.

They provide technical knowledge on agro-forestry and sustainable development, along with planting materials so that communities can return their degraded lands and struggling farms back to sustainable production.

Since 1988, Trees for the Future has helped thousands of communities in Central America, Africa, and Asia improve their livelihoods and their environment by planting nearly 50 million trees. The organization is also locally involved, educating students and communities about global issues, our role in the environment, and energy efficiency.
