Why we are planting

A structured answer to a growing pressure

Mauritius faces real environmental pressure from urbanisation, transport, waste and tourism. At the same time, more people, businesses and institutions want to take genuine climate action. This program turns that willingness into something real: a transparent, well managed way to restore forest cover across the island.

Restore native forest and ecological balance across Mauritius

Offer an accessible way to offset carbon, for individuals and organisations

Help companies and tourism partners show real environmental commitment

Track and report impact with clear, honest numbers

Built with the right people

One programme, three kinds of expertise

The program is led by Africa Development Program Services, working alongside The Green Village and Viaterra Ltd. Together, programme management, ecological knowledge and on the ground delivery meet in one place.

ADPS

Programme management, stakeholder coordination and transparent impact reporting.

The Green Village

Ecological expertise, native species knowledge and long term land stewardship.

Viaterra Ltd

Land access and on the ground delivery capacity for planting sites.

Our first forest

Le Morne, Green Village

The first site under this program sits at The Green Village, Le Morne, in the shadow of Le Morne Brabant. It is where the first trees go into the ground, chosen and cared for by people who know this land well.

More sites will open across Mauritius as the forest grows
How a forest gets planted

Every tree chosen and maintained with care

Species are selected by ecologists for what genuinely belongs here: native and endemic trees suited to the soil, the climate and the surrounding habitat. Each site is then prepared, planted and watched over time.

01

Site preparation

Land is assessed and prepared by ecologists ahead of any planting.

02

Native species selection

Trees are chosen to match the soil, climate and local habitat.

03

Planting

Trees go into the ground with the people and partners behind them.

04

Ongoing care

Growth is monitored over time, so the forest actually establishes.

A tree for a life, well marked

In memory of a loved one
Weddings and anniversaries
Graduations and achievements
Any moment worth marking
