In the operations of Trees4Trees’ nurseries, we place a high priority on strong coordination and cultivate a culture of hard work and perseverance within our team to nurture tree seedlings and achieve successful growth and thriving saplings.
In addition to seedling cultivation, our nursery teams are also responsible for the development of essential facilities within the nursery.
Explore further through images we captured below to learn about our dedicated team’s daily efforts to enhance the nursery and provide essential supporting facilities.
Every morning, our nursery team holds a daily briefing to coordinate tasks within the nursery. (above) The Ciminyak nursery team and (below) the Soreang nursery team conduct their morning briefings before starting work.
(Above) As tree seedlings flourish and thrive, we can see green seedbeds in the open–air areas of Cirasea nursery. (Below) Large shading net roofs are installed to provide shade to Bur-flower tree seedbeds, promoting optimal growth and preventing excessive sunlight, especially in this dry season.

Soreang Nursery team (above) is installing plastic plant covers to the sowing seedbeds. The plant covers the purpose of keeping the humidity and protecting the little seedlings from rainwater runoff, wind, excessive sunlight, and pests’ attack. Pati Nursery team (below) is protecting avocado seedlings with plastic plant covers.
It has been months since we began the Soreang Nursery operation. The Soreang Nursery team has already installed a name plate, marking the location of Soreang Nursery as the newest addition to Trees4Trees’ nurseries in Bandung regency.
Recently, our team welcomed Samantha Davolos, a scientist from one of our partners, Plant for the Planet (PFTP), who visited our nursery in Pati to gain insights into the plants we have grown on behalf of PFTP. In addition to the nursery visit in Pati nursery, the PFTP’s scientist also toured our Kebumen nursery. Trees4Trees and PFTP have been collaborating on tree-planting for the past six years since 2017.
Ensuring the optimal growth of seedlings requires the essential task of clearing excessive weeds from the planting areas. In the Kebumen nursery, our team diligently worked to remove weeds around the seedbeds where our seedlings are thriving.
The Cirasea team has recently constructed a new ‘saung,’ a traditional resting shelter made from bamboo, wood, and straw, as an additional support facility within the nursery area. This new ‘saung‘ will provide a resting place as well as an open-air discussion area. (Below) The new ‘saung‘ is fully finished and is being used by our nursery workers for taking a rest.
