The ITN project is an effort dating back to 2020, where we give out indigenous tree seedlings to organizations for their projects. Over the years, the project has supported five organizations and individuals in restoration projects and tree-planting activities. FCCF is committed to restoring degraded and deforested landscapes, thereby expanding the scope of the initial project.
The main objective of the ITN Project is to make over-exploited indigenous tree seedlings available to farmers and organizations that need them. The project will also create awareness of the importance of indigenous trees; and their propagation for forest conservation.
Education and research are vital to the ITN project; we are working with a student in the Department of Social and Environmental Forestry, J. S. Tarka University in Benue State, to research selected tree species.
By planting indigenous tree species, you promote the survival and well-being of wildlife. Indigenous trees have long been a food source and shelter for animals like birds and butterflies.
