SEPTEMBER 18 IS WORLD BAMBOO DAY!
–
In celebration of World Bamboo Day, the DENR, together with the Forest Management Bureau and the Field Offices, culminated the tree planting activity last September 18 all over the country.
With a total land area of 104 hectares from 104 planting sites, we are able to plant a total of 22,634 bamboo and tree seedling stocks!
The National Simultaneous Bamboo and Tree Planting Activity was made possible in collaboration with the Philippine Bamboo Industry Development Council (PBIDC) with its member government agencies and regional and provincial counterparts, Local Government Units (LGUs), participation from different bamboo advocate groups and organizations, and other private groups and organizations.
