Tree planting activity is held annually at KFBG on Earth Day.  It was held on 20th April this year. All KFBG staff gathered together and celebrated Earth Day through planting native trees on the hillside of Tai Mo Shan.

 

Planting native trees to the hillside at Tai Mo Shan is an on-going project to restore our native forest.  This year, 144 staff and guests planted 1,280 seedlings of 77 native tree species (Please see the table below).  Some of the tree species are listed in 100 Rare and Precious Plants of Hong Kong, The aim of this experiment is to further enrich species diversity at tree planting site. Tree protectors were installed to protect the seedlings from strong wind and animal foraging.
