On behalf of the community of Acul- du- Nord, we would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to CADEAU VERT for organizing this impactful seed-planting journey in November 5th for our students from two local schools: L’École Nationalede  L’Acul-du- Nord and Bethany school.

This initiative not only teaches the importance of caring for the environment but also instills valuable lessons on responsibility, patience, and growth. By involving kids in this hands-on experience, they’re planting seeds of awareness, compassion, and stewardship in each young heart. The benefits of this program will extend far beyond the plants themselves, as these children will carry forward a deep respect for nature and a commitment to nurturing their surroundings. Thank you CADEAU VERT making a lasting difference in our community!

605 students participated in that journey. They planted different kinds of seeds: Avocado, orange, lemon, mango, and papaya to name a few.

The Agronomists VULVERT Lucson and JULES Evensky Junior led the presentation and activities of the day. They spoke about the importance of trees and the positive impact trees have on people's lives.

Both school directors, ALTIDOR Jolius from École Nationale de LAcul du Nord and PIERRE Ronald from Bethany school contributed as well to the presentation. They motivated the students to protect, to water, and to love their trees. 

The most important thing to us was the interest that the people of the community showed and the impact that CADEAU VERT is making on the community.
