A nursery for the East African coastal forest.

What we do

Indigenous trees, grown for the long return.

The East African coast has lost most of its forest to centuries of clearance — for sisal, for charcoal, for development. We don't plant fashionable trees from elsewhere. We propagate the species that belong here: baobabs and acacias, mahoganies and figs, and the rare critically endangered species you won't find anywhere else on the coast.

Every plant we sell goes through the same forest that informs our catalogue — a 100-acre working landscape next to the nursery, in active regeneration. The same canopy we grow seeds the next generation we sell.
