Trees for Cities is taking part in this unique scheme run by the Size of Wales Project to plant and sustain an area of African forest equivalent to the size of Wales.  How often have you heard the alarming news that an area of rainforest the size of Wales is being cut down?   The Size of Wales Project aims to turn that negative use of the country's size on its head.  Trees for Cities’ contribution will involve planting urban forest and fruit orchards to provide sustainable livelihoods for impoverished people living in the Ethiopian capital Addis Ababa.

£20 will plant 30 square metres of community orchard and urban forest within Addis Ababa – with a total aim of planting 1.85 hectares to benefit some of the world's poorest people.
