Our Tree Planting Programme |
| |
For the last 10 years we have been involved in a reforestation programme for our ‘God’s Forest’. In the 1950’s the estate on which Living Heritage Koslanda is today, was abandoned to nature. At this time there was much infilling of land needed because almost all of the land had been cleared for plantation agricultural purposes during the time of the British Colonies. In the last decade we have begun to reintroduce indigenous tree varieties, particularly Sinharaja Forest varieties, to the secondary forest that has sprung up over the last 60 years (after it was abandoned to nature).
We welcome all of our guests to participate in our reforestation programme and plant a tree during their stay.
