Forestry: Creation and Restoration

Creating forests lies at the core of Armenia Tree Project. Our work blends community engagement with careful stewardship, ensuring these forests flourish for years to come.

In 2025, the Forestry team reached a significant milestone. Over the course of the year, 1,000,050 trees were planted across 250 hectares in nine communities in the Lori, Shirak, and Kotayk regions. This achievement reflects years of dedicated work by staff in our nurseries, along with careful planning tailored to each site.

Planting locations were selected through close collaboration with local communities. Every tree that contributes to these new and restored forests was grown from seed in Armenia Tree Project’s nurseries.  

Urban greening

Urban greening is not just about planting trees. It is a way of strengthening communities, fostering environmental responsibility, and creating sustainable green spaces across Armenia.

Through the greening of public areas, the Armenia Tree Project contributes to greater ecological resilience, improves public health and well-being, and helps deepen people’s connection to their local environment.

The more actively a community is involved, the stronger the sense of responsibility becomes—toward the place they live and the homeland as a whole. This is how care and respect for nature and shared community spaces take root.

Tree Nurseries

Healthy forests and thriving community green spaces begin with strong, resilient trees. This principle guides the work of our nurseries.

For Armenia Tree Project team, it is essential that every tree is carefully grown and tended, so it can successfully take root and grow in Armenia’s natural conditions.

Environmental Education

Armenia Tree Project’s Environmental Education program fosters long-term environmental responsibility in Armenia by equipping students, teachers, and communities with practical knowledge, hands-on skills, and a sense of care for the natural environment.

As environmental challenges continue to grow, so does the need for practical, experience-based learning alongside the national curriculum. The program responds to these needs by complementing school education with opportunities for experiential learning.
