Join the New Green Revolution Why You Need To Plant A Tree Zambia is home to extensive natural forests, with around 66% of the country's land area still covered in these vital ecosystems. However, as urban and agricultural development continues, large areas of land are being cleared and left unprotected, resulting in depleted soils, higher temperatures, and, most importantly, reduced water retention, making us increasingly vulnerable to climate change. By planting more trees, we will be preserving and expanding Zambia’s tree cover, and we can improve our general quality of life for residents. This video from Kenya tells the story of diminishing forests in Kenya. Do parts of it sound eerily similar to our situation in Zambia? How many streams and wetlands do you know of that have dried up because of reckless tree cutting? Get Involved #treeplantingchallengezambia Planting trees is just one way to improve our shared landscape and mitigate some of the negative effects of climate change.

Protect the Forest from Fire! Miombo woodlands are rich in plants adapted to sporadic fires, but frequent burning now causes severe damage. Fires deplete organic matter, kill vegetation, and harden soil, making recovery difficult. Rebuilding topsoil can take 30 years, and restoring the tree canopy takes even longer. By stopping field burning, we give nature a chance to slowly rebuild the soil. Watch this video of the miombo burning! Sustainable Harvesting of Firewood Many trees are cut down for urban charcoal use. With careful forest management, natural regrowth can supply rural wood needs without causing deforestation. Sustainable tree pruning is a key part of Farmer-Managed Natural Regeneration. More from Grassroots Trust Zambia The Story of Farmer-Managed Natural Regeneration FMNR is a low-cost, sustainable land management approach that helps rural communities regenerate shared grazing lands and fields. Read more from World Vision Zambia! The Truth about Trees and Water Managing trees in forests and around rivers is crucial for a steady water supply, especially in Zambia, where rainfall is scarce for nearly eight months. This Tree Aid video from Ghana illustrates how vegetation loss impacts rivers, agriculture, and community resources. Zambia's Desperate Reality Protecting our forests are essential to prevent a water crisis in Lusaka and Zambia in general. In an impassioned plea, Timothy Phiri, a Zambian environmentalist, explains the consequences, if we the people of Zambia do not engage in protecting our natural resources.

Primarily located in the Kabulonga neighborhood, it has established itself as one of the capital's leading advocates for clean eating, smallholder support, and agroecological sustainability. Rather than operating merely as a conventional grocery outlet, Greens and Grains plays a pivotal role in connecting Lusaka’s urban consumers with the country's growing regenerative farming movement. 1. Premium Organic Retail & Sourcing Strict Chemical-Free Standards: The store specializes in high-quality, seasonal fruits, vegetables, and whole foods that are grown entirely without synthetic pesticides or chemical fertilizers. It answers a vital demand in Lusaka for clean, traceable produce, attracting local health-conscious residents and expats alike. * **Heirloom Seeds and Inputs:** Beyond edible produce, the shop is a recognized resource for home gardeners looking to step away from hybrid commercial seeds. They actively promote and help source open-pollinated, organic, and climate-adapted seed varieties that thrive naturally in Zambian soils. 2. Supporting Local Smallholders: The uBumi PGS Network A core part of the Greens and Grains mission is empowering local farmers who practice agroecology. Because formal international organic certification is incredibly expensive and logistically difficult for small-scale Zambian farmers to obtain, the hub works closely with the **uBumi Participatory Guarantee System (PGS) which certifies producers based on active participation, shared trust, and peer reviews from fellow organic farmers and consumers who physically inspect the farms to guarantee chemical-free practices. Market Linkages:By giving these certified farmers direct shelf space, Greens and Grains ensures that small-scale eco-farmers get a fair, premium price for their labor, bypassing exploitative supply chains. 3. The Catalyst for "Green Gatherings Greens and Grains serves as the primary incubator and host for Lusaka's Green Gatherings. These curated weekend events turn the retail space into an open community forum where the public can pull up a chair and engage directly with the people growing their food. Whether you are looking to source high-grade organic greens, invest in healthy soil for your backyard, or plug into the center of Lusaka's eco-conscious community, Greens and Grains stands out as a foundational pillar of the city's green movement. < Back Next>
