Let's Grow Together
Growing & distributing free Baobab & Tamarind seedlings across Zambia
How You Can Help
We match volunteers to roles based on their location, availability, and skills. Not everyone needs to be in the field — there are roles for people of all ages and abilities.
Join a community planting day and plant trees alongside our field team. We supply seedlings, tools, water, and guidance. Suitable for all ages — families, schools, corporates, and individuals.
If you have a Baobab, Tamarind, Marula, or other indigenous tree on your property or farm, the seeds from a single tree can grow into thousands of new seedlings. We guide you on collection and arrange pickup or drop-off.
Help transport seedlings from nurseries to distribution points. Particularly needed in provinces outside Lusaka where our logistics network is thinner. A vehicle and willingness to travel are all you need.
Organise a seedling giveaway in your community — at a church, school, market, or community hall. We supply the seedlings and promotional materials; you coordinate the venue, timing, and turnout. Ideal for community leaders, teachers, and pastors.
Help document planting events, community giveaways, and tree growth over time. Photos are published in our gallery, used in donor reports, and shared on social media. Mobile phone photography is welcome — not just professional cameras.
Run tree-care workshops, environmental education sessions, or school gardening programmes. We provide curriculum resources and seedlings. This role is ideal for teachers, agricultural extension officers, and environmental professionals.
Seed Donations
The seeds from a single mature Baobab or Tamarind tree on your farm can grow into thousands of seedlings — seedlings that we grow in our nurseries and distribute free to communities across Zambia.
We accept seed donations from individuals, farmers, schools, churches, landowners, and community groups across all ten provinces. If you have indigenous trees on your property and seeds to spare — we want to hear from you.
We will advise on the best time to collect, how to prepare seeds for donation, and can arrange collection from your location or direct you to the nearest drop-off point.
From the Field
A typical volunteer planting day runs from 08:00 to 13:00. Seedlings are laid out by species, each volunteer is shown the correct planting depth and spacing, and the team works through the site row by row. By midday, hundreds of trees are in the ground. Photos are taken, GPS coordinates are recorded, and every participant receives a certificate.
Community giveaway events are organised at a school, church hall, or open market space. Seedlings arrive in crates from our nursery. Volunteers register recipients, explain tree-care instructions, and help load seedlings into bags for people to carry home. One event can put seedlings into the hands of 200–500 people in a single morning.
During harvest season, volunteers visit farms and bush areas to collect ripe seeds from indigenous trees. Seeds are bagged, labelled by species and location, and delivered to our nursery for cleaning, drying, and germination. A single seed-collection volunteer on a productive day can bring in seeds for thousands of future trees.
Donate to fund the seedlings that volunteers plant, or request seedlings for your own community.
