About This Project

Plant Your Age tree planting initiative is a values-driven environmental movement that encourages individuals to plant and nurture a number of trees equal to their age.

The initiative reframes tree planting from a one-time activity into a lifelong personal responsibility, where trees are planted, cared for, and grown alongside the individual. By linking age to action, Plant Your Age fosters accountability, continuity, and a deeper emotional connection to environmental stewardship.

Plant Your Age promotes tree survival rather than symbolic planting. Participants are encouraged to monitor growth, replace failed trees, and treat each tree as a living responsibility rather than a ceremonial act.

As part of the Green Africa ecosystem, Plant Your Age supports climate action, ecosystem restoration, and environmental awareness by turning personal milestones into measurable, long-term impact.
