Last year Blackmoor Nurseries and our customers donated a fabulous £9526 to TREE AID’s Tree Revolution Campaign. That is equivalent to 9526 trees planted and protected in Africa’s Sahel Region, the harshest, driest landscape on the planet. Thank you so much to all of our customers who supported TREE AID last year.

But we still need your help. Vulnerable families living in Africa’s drylands are facing a terrifying year ahead. Poor rains mean that staple food crops have withered in the fields and rural people are facing famine.

Trees provide a safety net when food is scarce: fruit, nuts, leaves, and seeds can all be eaten. Things that grow on trees can also be sold so that families can buy food when times are tough. In short, trees can make the difference between famine and survival for villagers in the Sahel.

As you enjoy the bounty from your own fruit trees and bushes, please help some of the most vulnerable families on the planet to do the same. You can make a donation to TREE AID at the checkout, and when you donate, Blackmoor donates to TREE AID too, giving 10% of the value of your basket.

Please make a donation at the checkout today. £1 can plant a tree. £10 can train a mother to care for those trees and help them bear fruit. £100 can train a whole community to plant trees and protect existing forest for generations to come. Please help TREE AID replace hunger and poverty with thriving, self reliant communities across the Sahel.
