On May 27, 2023 (Saturday), the orientation and distribution series for the second batch of beneficiaries of the Plant for the Planet Project took place in Sabado. A total of 226 registered members of the program attended the orientation and received five puno ng kalamansi seedlings as a parting gift from the Department of Agriculture.
During the orientation, the participants were provided with an explanation about the Plant for the Planet Project, its objectives, and were given some useful tips for proper planting and care of kalamansi trees.
The Plant for the Planet Project is an initiative aimed at promoting environmental sustainability and community development. It encourages individuals and communities to actively participate in reforestation efforts by planting trees, specifically kalamansi trees, which are known for their numerous benefits.
The orientation served as a platform to educate and engage the beneficiaries in understanding the importance of the project and their role in contributing to a greener and healthier environment. By distributing puno ng kalamansi seedlings, the Department of Agriculture hopes to encourage the beneficiaries to start their own mini kalamansi orchards, fostering a sense of ownership and responsibility towards the environment.
The Infanta Credit and Development Cooperative, also known as ICDeC, played a significant role in organizing and facilitating the orientation and distribution event. They have been instrumental in implementing the Plant for the Planet Project and ensuring its success in the community.
With the participation and support of the beneficiaries, organizations like ICDeC, and the Department of Agriculture, the Plant for the Planet Project continues to make a positive impact on the environment and the lives of the community members involved.
The orientation and distribution event was a step forward in empowering the beneficiaries to become stewards of the environment. By equipping them with knowledge and seedlings, it is hoped that they will embrace the importance of planting and nurturing trees, ultimately leading to a greener and more sustainable future.
