“The true meaning of life is to plant trees, under whose shade you do not expect to sit”
Nelson Henderson
After months of planning on Saturday 21 st june 2020 we planted 400 trees on the gwarimpa/Kubwa expressway and it was so exciting doing this particular one in Abuja.
Most of the time, we volunteer to join other organizations planting trees but seeing that we did this one all by ourselves was fulfilling. It was an eventful experience for us. We started and finished planting trees ourselves.
We had Mr Habila, representing the director of parks and tree maintenance and Mr Charles an assistant director in the parks and recreation department. We also had Mr Dickman John the irrigation engineer who supported us from start to finish. They all loved the effort we put into the tree planting and asked that we put more into maintaining them so that they will be sustainable.
See pictures from the tree planting below.
