Forestry program 𖧧⋆˚࿔
PCRP was awarded an Urban & Community Fund (UCF) grant through the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) Forest Service (USFS) to build community resilience and food security in the CNMI. Our efforts are focused on planting native and fruiting trees, removing hazardous trees, and eliminating the invasive African tulip (Spathodea campanulata). In addition, our Forestry Program is working to increase local capacity through job training and expanding local tree nurseries with our partners at DLNR Rota Forestry, Northern Marianas College (NMC) Cooperative Research Extension & Education Service (CREES), and local private nurseries.
PCRP Forestry will be working with the community at residential and public spaces, including schools, parks, homesteads and other private lands to increase availability of native trees and productive fruiting trees on Saipan, Tinian, and Rota. Stay tuned for opportunities to work with us in your community!
