Ten years ago (2014) the Baobab Foundation established the Baobab Guardians program. Women from different villages in Niyani volunteered to be Guardians of young baobab trees to protect them from browsing goats. The program planted 101 baobab trees and successfully brought them up the height that they would flourish for the next few centuries.
This week the last nine Guardians in Dambale village proudly received their certificates. Thank you to our sponsors, Unrooted Drinks and Lather, for their support to the Dambale Guardians.
