Participants planting mangrove seedlings in former pond mud, 2018

Restoration

Mangrove planting

Plant mangroves on eroded aquaculture ponds with the local fishers who have looked after this site since 2018.

Planting takes place on eroded aquaculture ponds that are being restored. Local guides show which species suits each spot and how to plant it properly, because the wrong species in the wrong place is easily washed away.

It suits schools, universities, companies and community groups. For large plantings, contact the team well ahead so seedlings can be prepared.

What you will do

  • Learn about pioneer mangrove species and why they are used
  • Plant seedlings with local guides
  • Learn how planted seedlings are looked after and monitored
