Planting trees 🌳, done right, can help protect local populations, biodiversity & the 🌍. UK in Madagascar delighted to join forces again with @TeamKMCC, Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust, Robens Group, MEDD, & Vatovaky & Ambalavao schools - to check on last year’s seedlings 🌱 & plant lots more!

Working together for a better and greener future. Tree planting 2022 in Ambalavao Atsimondrano, well done @TeamKMCC UK in Madagascar Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust Robens Group

🌳 Plant a tree for the Jubilee! Thanks to @TeamKMCC we now have an endemic Baobab growing in the 🇬🇧 Ambassador’s garden. Proud to join the The Queen's Green Canopy initiative, marking the Queen’s #PlatinumJubilee and supporting efforts for environmental protection this #WorldEnvironmentDay

Beilschmiedia microphylla is an endemic species of tree found in Madagascar. It is currently assessed as Vulnerable by the IUCN & no recorded individuals found in ex situ conservation. ow.ly/aoHI50MoRbp #TuesdayTrees #BiodiversityCrisis #TreeConservation #TreeFacts

SCT field days complete, back in Antananarivo tired but elated from working with such inspiring people, our @TeamKMCC colleagues, and representatives from Centre ValBio, PBZT and SNGF. Four more days of training at start tomorrow. Alefa!

Learning how to save lives today with @TeamKMCC colleagues Vonona and Henintsoa on an outdoors first aid course at @wakehurst_kew. Essential training, but hopefully will never have to use it!

Our Malagasy partners @TeamKMCC had a brilliant tour this morning with KewGardens botanical horticulturist Rob. Supported by Garfield Weston Foundation funded project to collect seed and grow trees for restoration. Von even did some identification for us!

Seeds we collected in Madagascar arrived at the MSB yesterday, how exciting to unload and find that the Olax antsiranensis is looking nice and viable...going to check back in four weeks' time to see how it fares on an agar plate...

Proud to have an article about the mysterious Cryptocarya trees published in Samara with vononarbgkew @TeamKMCC...have a read! brahmsonline.kew.org/msbp/Samara/EN…

Living the Garfield Weston Foundation #GlobalTreeSeedBank dream in Thailand with an absolutely inspiring day spent with teams from FORRU in Thailand, BRIN Indonesia and @TeamKMCC discussing seed conservation, and all things restoration. How much we can learn when we talk to each other!

Another highly enjoyable day celebrating 30 years of FORRU at STT50. Particular highlight talking to the originator of the framework species method for tropical forest restoration Nigel Tucker about our Garfield Weston Foundation ##GlobalTreeSeedBank project using the method in Madagascar!

Setting up a network of regional agents to monitor the phenology of target tree species with @TeamKMCC as part of the Garfield Weston Foundation #GlobalTreeSeedBank programme. So important if we want to be able to effectively target seed collections for greater quality and genetic diversity

Very proud to host the UK Ambassador at our Garfield Weston Foundation #GlobalTreeSeedBank project site in Ankarafantsika yesterday. Thank you for the visit Patrick Lynch look forward to working together more closely for Madagascar's amazing biodiversity!
