Rainforest GC reforesting Singapore

In May 2013 members of Rainforest GC planted out three more rainforest trees raised from seed in our dedicated tree nursery on the Dover Campus. With space running out on Campus we have decided to offer trees to the wider community. An interested parent kindly gave us space to plant in her lovely garden along nearby Coronation Road.

There will be more plantings soon as the Nursery makes space for more critically endangered species in an exciting new partnership with Singapore Botanic Gardens. Please contact Nathan Hunt on nhu@gapps.uwcsea.edu.sg if you would like to be involved or know someone who might want a rainforest tree in their garden!
