Grassland Restoration in Kenya

Grassland restoration is a method of natural carbon sequestration that has been used for centuries by traditional farmers in Africa. The practice involves restoring and maintaining grasslands, which store carbon as a result of the high biomass content of grasses.

Grassland is home to millions of species of insects, birds, and other wildlife. Restoration of grasslands helps to restore the natural balance in ecosystems by providing food, water, shelter, and more for local wildlife.

The iconic grassland landscape in Kenya has been damaged by overgrazing, drought, and deforestation. However, you can contribute to one of the most effective forest and grassland restoration programs in Sub-Saharan Africa, via a seedling buyback program and other livelihood diversification initiatives. Beyond reducing carbon, you’ll also help provide employment to hundreds of local residents.
