100.000 NATIVE TREES FOR THE TRUONG SON RANGE

Recently, the final batch of tree seedlings was handed over by the Center for Nature Conservation and Development (CCD) to local residents and cooperatives in Huong Son Commune, Huong Hoa District, Quang Tri Province. Prior to this, CCD had distributed and planted 80,000 trees in September. With this final delivery, CCD and our partner, One Tree Planted, have successfully met the goal of restoring 100,000 native trees helping to connect areas of high biodiversity along the Truong Son Mountain Range.

These trees are expected to provide natural shade for coffee plantations, reforest barren land, and rehabilitate degraded areas, while also increasing local incomes through the collection of non-timber forest products and forest environmental service payments.

CCD and our partners will continue to support households and cooperatives that received the seedlings with sustainable forestry techniques. This will enhance the conservation of native species, contribute to local livelihoods, and regenerate natural forests rich in biodiversity. The initiative aims to harmonize the greenery of the Truong Son Range with the prosperity and cultural heritage of the local ethnic communities.
