Last week I helped reforest Lobitos, Peru with @Ecoswell. Photos and a video.steemCreated with Sketch.

Post is a bit late as it occurred over the 27-28th of June and better late than never. 

Over the last couple of months @ecoswell has been putting all the pieces together to make these tree planting days happen. They are a local not for profit operating in Lobitos, Peru and one of their main programs is reforestation. They also have a small garden nursery where they can produce hundreds of native tree and plant saplings. 

I couldn't be there the full two days, but I saw loads of people (local and foreign) pitching in and making it happen. I helped plant a few, but I think I dug more holes than planted. All good though. Big big shout out to @diego-ecoswell and @pizarro1301 for making this happen, as well as to their volunteers. Not sure they are on Steem yet, but if you are please comment below. 

In all I believe around 200 were planted in two days and this is just the start. 

Ps. I have had a good beard trim and haircut since that video was filmed.
