VENTREE: LIRA PLANTATION-Update_Nov-2019

This is an overview presentation of Ventree's first plantation on Priceless Farms presented by farm manager Aaron Elton. The species chosen for this plantation is the Lira Tree. Planted in the fall of 2018 the plantation suffer heavy losses in the first few months after the initial planting due to drought resulting in over 30% die-off. However the surviving trees are healthy and the Priceless Farms family farmers have been steadily re-planting seedlings in the gaps and the second planting is taking root / At the time of this filming the plantation is just one year old and the evidence of quick and healthy growth is evident. Aaron also explains the value of the Lira in this region and how plantations like this are providing employment and lifting people out of poverty while growing and nurturing plantations that are contributing to mitigating the effects of climate change.
