ATP Breaks Record by Planting One Million Trees in Lori Region

Armenia Tree Project has been collaborating with World Wide Fund for Nature Armenian Branch (WWF Armenia) on an unprecedented large-scale reforestation program in the communities of Jrashen and Tsaghkaber in the northern region of Lori.

The project was initiated in late 2008, and since then ATP has planted 1,000,000 indigenous tree seedlings for the program, which is the largest number of trees planted by the organization in a single year. The planting site covered a total of 400 ha (1,000 acres) of deforested land in Lori, near the earthquake region of Spitak.
