About the Program

As a volunteer in our beautiful tree nursery, you will help maintain the nursery and vast garden. Our mission is to improve livelihoods through agricultural innovation and environmental protection. This is the essence of being a tree nursery volunteer at Reforest the Future Gambia. In the Gambia, and Africa as a whole, we are facing critical periods of deforestation, and food security is a major concern for the coming decades.

What To Expect

You will wake up in the tree nursery under the canopy of a mahogany tree, surrounded by the sound of birds chirping.
Take a stroll around the beautiful tree nursery. You can choose to help feed the animals on-site or assist in the tree nursery.

A Typical day at Work

Help maintain and improve our beautiful tree nursery site. We aim to set an example of reforestation in practice for the whole of Gambia.

Upcountry is beautiful, and our team can provide tips for making the most of your time.
Highlights include Wassu Stone Circle, taking a boat ride with Gambia's wild hippos, or visiting the incredible chimpanzee rehabilitation project.
