Florenville is a French-speaking town located in the Walloon region in the province of Luxembourg, more precisely in the Gaume region, on the border with the Ardennes and France. The project started with the first plantation activity in March and April 2022 and is finished one year later. The trees are planted in diversified and mixed hardwood species: chestnut trees, maples, sessile oaks, and wild cherry trees. The plot has a private owner. The plantation fulfills a triple objective: Reforestation of neglected/abandoned land, without satisfactory natural regeneration. Diversified reforestation after a health crisis: spruce bark beetle. Increase of the forest area by the conversion of neglected areas. The plantation obviously contributes to all the ecosystem benefits of a balanced and functional forest (CO2, soil, water...). In particular, the presence of chestnut trees will contribute to the development of biodiversity; the plantation also provides a landscape interest given the touristic character of the region. Extra: Type of soil: silty / sandy Altitude : +/- 320 m Work: crushing of the soil (brushwood and shapeless coppice) - planting and treatment with Trico (natural product based on sheep fat) to keep animals away Organization of the plantation by mixed blocks in great density of +/- 2.500 trees / Ha

Location: Lasne Maransart (40 km from Brussels) Project: reforestation of 1.7 hectares with 4200 trees Timing: planting season winter 2023-2024, last additions in 2024 Reason for reforestation: Replanting is necessary as there are no natural seedlings (other than birch) on the plot. Diversification of species is necessary for resilience to climate change. Tree species: 80% Sessile oak, 10% Small-leaved lime, 10% Byzantium hazelnut Planting organization: In the center of the plot we plant mixed rows of 3 oaks and 1 lime tree, in a staggered pattern (2x2.5m). At the edge of the plot we plant 4 rows along the road to the North. Monitoring update, June 2026: - 4,200 trees planted: 80% sessile oak, 10% small-leaved lime and 10% Byzantine hazel, in mixed rows of 3 oaks to 1 lime tree in a staggered pattern, with four rows of edge planting along the boundary. - The recovery rate stands at 100%, and the plot's overall sanitary state is very good. No biotic or climatic damage was observed. - Manual clearing and game protection have been carried out. No replanting is needed. - Natural regeneration of oak and maple is present on site and will be preserved. - Overall, the plantation is doing very well!

Maransart is a small village part of the commune of Lasne. The village is located 40 km from Brussels and forests are not abundant in the region. This project is a plantation of 550 trees on a surface of 0.28 hectares, during the winter of 2023-2024. We plant sessile oak, Service tree, and Bird cherry. Long ago, the plot only had birch trees used for coppicing, which is the repetitive cutting down of multi-stemmed trees, in this case, birch, creating a stump (a coppice stool), which will regrow from. Replanting is very important because there are no natural seedlings on the plot. Species diversification is necessary for resilience to climate change. Other details: Altitude – 150 m Soil type – Sandy-loamy with mainly favorable natural drainage Other support – Forêt résiliente Nursery – Pirothon Monitoring update, June 2026: - 550 trees planted: 40% sessile oak, 40% service tree and 20% bird cherry, in alternating rows (2 rows of oak, 2 rows of service tree), with bird cherry planted every 5 trees within the rows. - The recovery rate is currently estimated at 80%, and the plot's overall sanitary state is good. Game damage (browsing, rubbing, debarking) has affected 20% of trees; no climatic damage was reported. - Manual clearing has been carried out. - Natural regeneration of maple is present on site and will be preserved.

The La Joya site hosts our technical partner's largest tree nursery, supplying seedlings to farmers, native communities, researchers, NGOs, government projects, and the local municipality for urban tree planting in Puerto Maldonado. La Joya produces over 100 tree species each year, with capacity for 100,000 seedlings at a time. It is also the main location for farmer-facing workshops on tree nursery management, agroforestry, and Melipona beekeeping, and offers paid internships to Indigenous women in native species propagation and integral nursery management. The demonstration areas at La Joya showcase native species diversity across both agroforestry and reforestation plots. Over 200 tree species have been registered on site, part of the Living Seed Bank program for the conservation and propagation of native species. This diversity is the result of years of restoration work. When our local partner took over the site, it showed the effects of decades of cattle farming: compacted soils, annual burning, and invasive exotic grass that choked out young trees. Rebuilding La Joya took sustained management. Even now, a significant share of the trees planted on site serve to rehabilitate the soil, generating organic matter quickly to support the rest of the planting. Between 2021 and 2026, 67401 trees were planted at La Joya with the help of Go Forest clients, through two approaches, agroforestry and reforestation, covering 167 species in total. Agroforestry species planted include amongst others, Cacao, Caoba, Copoazu, Bobinsana, Guanabana, Camu camu, Achiote, Vainilla, Café, Piña, Mango, Palta, Lucma & Yuca.
