The Forktree Project involves reforesting an area of degraded farmland to show what is possible in terms of land restoration and carbon offsetting.
Our goals:
1
PROVIDE HABITAT FOR NATIVE SPECIES AND HELP COMBAT CLIMATE CHANGE THROUGH REWILDING THE LAND
2
IMPROVE ACCESS TO CARBON FUNDING FOR SMALL-MEDIUM SIZED LANDHOLDERS BY TRIALLING BETTER WAYS TO CALCULATE CARBON EMISSIONS, THUS ENCOURAGING MORE TREE PLANTING
3
ESTABLISH A SEED NURSERY TO GROW NATIVE PLANTS AND TREES
4
BE AN EDUCATIONAL RESOURCE TO ENCOURAGE BOTH SUSTAINBLE PRACTICES AND SMALL-SCALE LAND REGENERATION
